Hello friends of Hive, I hope you had a great weekend. Mine was quite entertaining, I walked a bit through the streets of Buenos Aires and I found a palace.

Hola amigos de Hive espero hayan tenido un excelente fin de semana. El mío estuvo bastante entretenido, caminé un poco por las calles de Buenos Aires y me encontré con un palacio.

This beautiful construction is called Palacio Sarmiento, it is located in the neighborhood of Recoleta in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires. When passing by here it is impossible not to turn around to see it since the construction is huge and quite striking, to walk around it was closed at that time, while I was taking the photographs a lady approached me to talk to me about this place.

Esta hermosa construcción se llama Palacio Sarmiento, queda ubicado en el barrio de recoleta en la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires. Al pasar por acá es imposible no voltear a verlo ya que la construcción es enorme y bastante llamativa, a pasear de que estaba cerrado en ese momento, mientras tomaba las fotografías una señora se me acercó para hablarme sobre este sitio.

She told me that originally this was a school for girls, that it had about 700 students and that it was donated by a lady, who was the owner of the land and in her will she wanted to give the land, aside from donating a generous amount of money to build said school, which is why it used to be called Petronila Rodríguez School, in honor of her. Besides, he also donated money for the construction of other schools, institutions and churches.

Me contó que originalmente esto era una escuela para niñas, que tenía unas 700 alumnas y que fue donado por una señora, que era la dueña del terreno y en su testamento quiso dar el terreno, aparte donó una cantidad generosa de dinero para que construyeran dicha escuela, por eso antes se llamaba Escuela Petronila Rodríguez, en honor a ella. Aparte también donó dinero para la construcción de otras escuelas, instituciones e iglesias.

Later, in the 20th century, it functioned as the headquarters of the National Ministry of Education and its name was changed to what it currently bears, Palacio Sarmiento.

Something that caught my attention is its sculptures in the construction, it has two Atlanteans that give it an elegant touch. He also told me that it is very nice inside, it has several rooms where the public can go and take pictures. I look forward to meeting you inside.

Luego en el siglo XX funcionó como sede del Ministerio Nacional de Educación y su nombre se cambió al que lleva actualmente, Palacio Sarmiento.

Algo que me llamó la atención son sus esculturas en la construcción, tiene dos atlantes que le da un toque elegante. También me contó que por dentro es muy lindo, tiene varias salas donde el público puede pasar y fotografiar. Espero poder conocerlo por dentro.

Then I continued my walk and crossed the Plaza Rodriguez Peña, which in my previous posts I have mentioned for its soccer, tennis and teqball courts, as it had rained a few hours before, there were still some puddles of water and the birds took the opportunity to take a bath 😂 I thought it was cute to see this and of course I tried to get as close as possible to take pictures of it.

Luego seguí mi caminata y atravesé la Plaza Rodriguez Peña, que en mis post anteriores la he mencionado por sus canchas de fútbol tenis y teqball, como había llovido unas horas antes, aún habían algunos charcos de agua y los pájaros aprovechaban para darse un baño 😂 me pareció tierno ver esto y claro traté de acercarme lo más posible para tomarle fotos.
