Parque Tres de Febrero, Urban park in Palermo, Argentina.
The 400-hectare park contains multiple lakes, wooded areas, gardens, and walkways, with El Rosedal featuring 18,000 rose bushes spread across its grounds.
The park opened in 1875 on the former estate of Juan Manuel de Rosas, named after the date of February 3, 1852, when he was removed from power.
The Poets' Garden displays stone and bronze busts of international writers, including Jorge Luis Borges, Luigi Pirandello, and William Shakespeare among its paths.
Visitors can rent rowboats on the lakes, cycle on designated paths, or take guided walks through the rose gardens from sunrise to sunset.
The Eduardo Sívori Museum occupies a converted Edwardian-style café building within the park, presenting exhibitions of Argentine art throughout the year.

Buenos Aires reveals a patrimonial wealth that goes beyond the usual circuits. This collection gathers places that tell the story of the Argentine capital through its architecture, green spaces, and cultural institutions. From the XVIIIth-century tunnel network of El Zanjón de Granados to the 22 stories of Palacio Barolo, these sites reflect the city's urban evolution. The itinerary includes diverse sites such as Palermo's Japanese Garden with its ponds and pavilions, the Museo de Arte Español Enrique Larreta showcasing works from the Middle Ages to the 20th century, and the moving Floralis Genérica sculpture whose petals open at sunrise. Neighborhoods like San Telmo, Barracas, and Colegiales offer architectural discoveries such as 19th-century passages, facades decorated with mosaics on Calle Lanín, and the Mercado de las Pulgas filled with Argentine antiques. These locations allow exploring Buenos Aires beyond postcards and observe how the city has preserved its history while growing. Each site provides a different perspective on porteña culture, from Carlos Gardel’s tango to European and Asian influences shaping the city’s identity.
