If you're in BA during a Thursday afternoon and want to check up on a historical tradition, then I suggest heading over to the Center to see the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo. Every Thursday since the late 1970s, a group of elderly women head over to Plaza de Mayo to protest the disappearances of their loved ones. During the 1970s, the Argentine military government kidnapped thousands of people. In many cases the detainees included pregnant women who, after giving birth, had their children taken away from them and adopted by military families. The mothers are protesting the disappearances as well as other pressing issues of the day.

Literally meaning the "Pink House", the Casa Rosada is the presidential palace. During the 1990s, the government tried to repaint the palace. However, they ran out of money and abandoned the project mid-way. Hence, one side of Casa Rosada is pinker than the rest.
