Central Plaza & Its Attractions

The Central Plaza, Plaza 9 de Julio (Argentina's Independence Day): the Cathedral, several museums, a theater, and many restaurants form the square around this plaza. Conviently our apartment is just 1.5 blocks away. There are always lots of people and dogs hanging out in the plaza, so its a nice place to be.
