 The Buenos Aires Obelisk by SabrinaSummerville Our hotel looked right out onto the famous Obelisk at the centre of Plaza de la Republica. If you want to get a really great and uninterrupted view of it, then try to get to the 23rd floor of the Panamericano Hotel, which is where I took this pic from. The Obelisk was built in 1936 to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the founding of the city. It is 220ft high and was designed by Alberto Prebisch. One of the things I ntocied in my tour of Argentina, Uruguay and Chile is that several cities in this part of the world also have Obelisks.
