The President of Argentina's workplace and the scene of many momentous events in the country's history, the pink Casa Rosada presides over the central Plaza de Mayo in Buenos Aires. Eva Peron famously addressed her adoring crowds from the balcony.
It was from the Casa Rosada that war was declared with the UK over the Faulkland Islands. The Presidential Museum tells these stories and also contains former Presidents' possessions.
