URQUIZA PARK

Land granted by José de Urquiza to his wife in his will, who herself bequeathed it to the city shortly afterwards. Charles Thays, the French landscaper to whom we owe so many parks in Buenos Aires, originally designed its configuration, but it was Francisco Bertozzi who completed its current appearance. You will enjoy strolling along the paths, contemplating the river flowing below, observing the various sculptures that punctuate the walk (such as the monument to General Urquiza, a work by Querol and Beuliure, dated 1920).
