Casa Rosada or "Pink Palace" probably the most famous monument in Argentina. Residence of the argentinian president but better known for hosting the speech made by Evita (also where Madonna sang "don't cry for me Argentina"). The colour is coming from the idea of the President Sarmiento en 1873 to mix red and white, colours of the two main political parties.
