Congreso de la Nación Argentina

The Palacio del Congreso de la Nación Argentina is defined by its massive central dome, a structure of copper and iron that rises eighty meters above the city streets. This monumental building occupies the western end of the Avenida de Mayo, anchoring a grand civic axis that stretches from the Casa Rosada. It houses the Argentine National Congress and is instantly recognizable for its neoclassical facade, which features a bronze quadriga sculpture depicting a triumphant chariot pulled by four horses.
