Lonely Planet review

Lively Plaza del Congreso is home to a miniscule amusement park, kid's playground, dog walkers, cooing pigeons and families feeding them, Rodin's statue The Thinker, and the splendid Monumento a los Dos Congresos. Honoring the congresses of 1810 in Buenos Aires and 1816 in Tucumán, which led to Argentine independence, its enormous steps symbolize the high Andes, while the fountain represents the Atlantic Ocean.
