Lonely Planet review

Completed in the 1820s, the austere neoclassical facade of BA's most important cathedral makes for an odd entrance into the splendid Baroque interior. The church has a beautiful rococo main altar and contains the mausoleum of General San Martín, Argentina's greatest independence hero. Outside, an eternal flame burns in his honor.
