Seeber Square is one of the most beautiful spaces in the city and the Palermo neighborhood in particular. The wide extension of its space has been chosen for different cultural events, attractions for children, theme parks within this same natural park, a place to have a picnic and spend a quiet afternoon, especially when it is spring season like now and in summer.

The square houses certain structures that are the main attractions, such as that pavilion, gazebo, or however you know it. A structure that was part of the gardens of the Bosch mansion, the same one that is now the residence of the American ambassador and that was later moved to Seeber Square.

This classical-style structure has been the location for numerous portrait photography works.

These paths covered by leaves of jacaranda trees are charming, especially when spring is beginning, they create a violet carpet. The trees forming an arch with each other make a fascinating mix.

The place is surrounded by iconic buildings, rural society, the United States embassy and other important moments.

Impossible not to take a photo of the Argentine flag, I waited several minutes waiting for a good shot where the flag was as extended as possible, the wind was an unfavorable factor at that time.

This is the monument to General Juan Manuel de Rosas, who was a politician, military man and governor of Buenos Aires twice. They called him the restorer of laws, he was in charge of the foreign relations of the Argentine confederation.

It is not the only monument to this national hero, there are many statues in different squares that house a tribute to him, even one of the subway stations has his name.

Near the temple, there are two sculptures of deer made of bronze on a masonry base. These works belong to the French sculptors Arthur Jacques Leduc and Prosper LeCourtier.

There is something fascinating about these emblematic places in the city, apart from getting to know them, enjoying the space and what it offers, it is also educational for me. I have the possibility of knowing and studying what the attractions, monuments and everything that surrounds these iconic spaces are about.

I hope you have a good Sunday. A hug for everyone.
