Parque Rivadavia, Public park in Caballito, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Parque Rivadavia is a six-hectare green space in Caballito with broad pathways, gardens, and an artificial lake. The area features sculptures, extensive play grounds, and is enclosed by an iron fence with nine entrance gates.
The land belonged to the Lezica family until 1908, when municipal authorities took over. The public park was established in 1928.
The park holds a statue honoring Simón Bolívar and a marble fountain that reflect connections to neighboring communities. These works show how different groups have shaped the space over time.
The park is open daily from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM and offers sports courts, play areas for children, and skating rinks. Visitors can easily find facilities spread across the nine entrance points.
Every Sunday morning collectors gather in the park for a market trading stamps, coins, and used books. This specialized gathering has become a regular meeting point for those interested in these items.
