Prepare yourself for an urban safari where the lions are cars and the lynxes are police officers. We’ll pass through Plaza Uruguaya, where we’ll find a very important gentleman named Bastos; the train station, which no longer has trains but does have stories; the Cathedral, which watches over everything with a solemn face; the Congress building, where things no one understands are discussed; the Cabildo, which seems to claim “I was here first”; the House of Independence, which still smells of patriotic gunpowder; the Pantheon of Heroes, where all its inhabitants sleep during the day; the Government Palace, where no one lives; and the Recova, where bargaining is a national sport.
