Recoleta is an upscale residential neighborhood in Buenos Aires, where my wife and I stayed during our visit to that city. The area has interesting historic architecture and is where you’ll find the Recoleta Cemetery and the Nuestra Señora del Pilar Church. Some of the most expensive real estate in Argentina is in Recoleta.

Recoleta is a place families live and play, with some nice parks and green spaces. There’s some interesting public art and architecture.
