I wasn't prepared for the sheer size of the Obelisk. It was huge. there is no way that you could possibly miss this monument because you could see it from just about anywhere.

Obelisk

This is a massic obelisk located at the center of the city in Microcentro. It is located on 9 de Julio Avenue which is insanely wide. Cross the street with caution.

Obelisko

The obelisk is a landmark in Buenos Aires city. It is particularly impressive at night with all the lights surrounding it.
It is located right in the heart of the city's business district.

This monument is situated at 9 de Julio w/ Corrientes street.
The 9 de Julio street is one, If not the one, of the largest streets of the world.
