Plaza Belgrano - Lújan, Buenos Aires, Argentina - Municipal Parks and Plazas on Waymarking.com

"Rodeada por edificios históricos de la época colonial y la imponente Basílica de Luján de estilo neogótico, la Plaza Belgrano transporta al visitante a una época lejana e indefinida. En algún tiempo atravesada por el Camino Real que llevaba al Alto Perú, la plaza fue rediseñada para recibir a miles de peregrinos y turistas y la realización de eventos culturales multitudinarios, presentando un amplio espacio abierto adoquinado con árboles en su periferia para no entorpecer la visual.
Es el verdadero núcleo del Luján histórico y punto de partida hacia todas sus atracciones. En su centro, la plaza se encuentra coronada por el monumento a Belgrano que le da su nombre y, además del Cabildo Colonial, el Complejo Museográfico Enrique Udaondo y el Museo de Bella Artes Félix Amador, en sus alrededores puede encontrarse una serie de comercios dedicados al turismo".
