GREEN PARKS BUENOS AIRES TOUR – 12K

Buenos Aires Green Parks 12k tour will take you through beautiful parks where you will feel a real running atmosphere – this is the place most runners choose to train and go for a jog. Inside Thay’s Park you will discover many significant sculptures, including Marta Minujín’s United Nations Statue, Fernando Botero’s “male torso”, Alejo Afani’s Pro Cultura Nacional, Néstor Basterretxea’s El Árbol (The Tree), donated by the city’s Basque community, and The Hemerocalis Monument, a beautiful, gigantic flower made by the artist Eduardo Catalano.
