Galerias Pacifico is a shopping arcade located on Florida, the downtown shopping pedestrian street. The frescos worth seeing as they're done by some important Argentine artists from the 1940s such as Berni. I just read its wiki page and the building has an incredibly varied history: department store, railway offices, torture center during the dictatorship, and now shopping mall. You basically have Argentine history in the 20th century encapsulated in a single building.

¡Que lindas sus fotos! These pictures are absolutely stunning. I studied abroad in BsAs this summer (at a private school inside Galerias Pacifico), and upon returning to Minnesota, I have been searching google religiously for photophers' websites in Argentina-- I have a pasion for photography. Thank you SO much for sharing these; it makes me feel like I am back in my second home once more. It's funny how BsAs can do that to a person.
