Plaza Constitución, Park in Buenos Aires, Argentina

Plaza Constitución is a public park in Buenos Aires, Argentina, located in the Constitución neighborhood next to the train station of the same name. It is bordered by Avenida Brasil and several streets, and it has a metro station nearby, making it a busy spot for people passing through.

In the 1850s, the area was an open field on the edge of the city, and in 1854 a market called Mercado Constitución was established there. Over time, the market gave way to the current square, which became a central point in the neighborhood.

The square is a common meeting point for people arriving from the train station, and you will often see locals sitting on the benches or buying snacks from the nearby shops. Its name comes from the Constitution, and the square has long been a reference point for the neighborhood.

The park is easy to reach on foot from the nearby train and metro stations, and it has several entrances around its perimeter. It is a good place to take a break during a day of walking, but keep an eye on your belongings as it can get crowded.

The square is home to a kindergarten, which is unusual for a public park and adds a lively touch during school hours. Also, several sculptures are placed around the square, often overlooked by people rushing to the station.
