Buenos Aires-20-12-2007 Written by Duncan Mitchel

 The 400th anniversary about the founding of the city led to building this monument in May 1936.
It is located at Nueve de Julio (the widest road of the world) and this is in the center of the Plaza de la Republica.
Its total height is 67 meters (220 feet) and its base area is 49 square meters (530 square feet). It was designed by architect Alberto Prebisch and its construction took barely four weeks.

During the international AIDS day they put A 67 m long condom on the Obelisco
Lines Line B, Line C, and Line D of the Buenos Aires Metro have stations near the obelisk, and are connected by a number of underground passages with commercial galleries.

Abrazos Y Besos!
