No problem, I wasn't sure myself at first!

 

I guess mine is no too difficult.

The architecture looks Tuscan reminiscent of the Duomo in Sienna, but it is obviously located in France from the spelling of the word Museum (Musee). What about Notre Dame de la Garde Marseille?

Right you are. The Church of Our Lady of Pilar in the La Recoleta district in Buenos Aires next to the cemetery.

It's the current residential address of Eva Peron who is allegedly buried at a depth of 18 feet to make certain she can't ever get out. :)

 

Your turn to pick a building.

Brian -

 

The Duarte family is responsible for creating and operating the EP museum, and yes, it is a bit one-sided, to say the least. It is still itneresting, though. If you visit the cemetary you'll always find crowds around EP's tomb, which is the easiest way to find it since the maps are not very user friendly.

Thanks - it struck a bell the moment I saw it.

I'll look something out for this evening.

BTW did you visit the EP Museum? Not exactly an objective retrospective! :rolleyes:

 

No, I didn't even know about it. The 18 feet burial depth is likely apocryphal. We were told that by a guide at the tomb of EP. Very likely a joke, but it does reflect a popular attitude among many of the locals, albeit not all of them since the Peronista's experienced a revival in the country.

 

Anyway, on to the next building.
