Since 1995, it has been decided that the streets of Puerto Madero neighborhood would bear the names of women who, in one way or another, had a great influence in our history. With this tour we decided to honor them. Through different representations, we will be able to approach different historical moments in our country, this time highlighting the roles of women in Argentine history. The circuit ends at the Anne Frank monument, near the famous silos of Puerto Madero, where the musical show by Abril Olivera, a rhythm & blues singer, will take place.

This circuit seeks to revive the history of the first square of the city (current Plaza de Mayo), recreating the customs and ideals of the characters who passed through it in the most relevant moments of our country's past. Neighbors and tourists will participate in this tour guided by a group of actors. They will witness the second foundation of Buenos Aires together with Juan de Garay and they will know different moments of the city in the times of the viceroys. In addition, they will discover the life of the colony with its typical characters, witness the dispute between Creoles and Spaniards, and learn about the ideas of the group of patriots who carried out the May Revolution.
