We were very excited about going to this attraction. First of all, we thought it was going to be a big Faro, and it is not like that. But, well, we still wanted to get up and see the awesome view that most of the reviews I read were talking about. We were surprised that they didn't let my 6... More

This is the place to see all the historic neighborhood. Though it's a little bit expensive for just getting in and see the view, it's a definite must, also you can see Buenos Aires from there and take a beautiful picture!

The view from the top is excellent- all the way to Buenos Aires across the Rio Plate. The breeze up here was cooling also. The view gave you good pictures of the surrounding town.

Good view over the town and across the Rio de La Plata to the buildings of Buenos Aires just visible on the horizon.

You climb up the stairs all the way to the top. Nice view of the town. They would not let kids under 8 to go up.

The position of this farol, and the height it commands.... unesco has done a commendable job is restoring and giving this small place its past grandeur..
