Plaza San Martín

Plaza San Martín is a wonderful green space perched on the cliffs and shaded by huge trees. There are curved paths leading to a large lookout point with views over the Retiro neighborhood and the Torre de los Ingleses. There are stunning buildings surrounding the square, including the Palacio Paz, the Plaza Hotel, and the Kavanagh Building, built from reinforced concrete in 1936 and declared a World Heritage architectural site. During lunchtime, the area fills with workers from the nearby offices looking relax with a picnic on the grass.
