Palermo Mosque + Racecourse Tour
Description
A la hora indicada, os recogeremos en vuestro hotel de Buenos Aires y nos dirigiremos al Centro Cultural Islámico Rey Fahd. ¿Sabíais que se trata de la mezquita más grande de Latinoamérica? At the scheduled time, we'll collect you from your hotel in Buenos Aires, and make our way to the Rey Fahd Cultural Centre. Did you know that this is the biggest mosque in Latin America?
At this cultural location, known also as the Palermo Mosque, we'll learn about the history of the temple, which was opened in the year 2000. During the tour, we'll admire this incredible structure from its exterior, as our knowledgeable guide shares fascinating insights about its architecture.
After touring the mosque, we'll continue the tour by visiting the Palermo Racecourse, which carries with it more than 100 years of history! At this racecourse, whose architecture presents an elegant French style, we'll discover the facilities and learn about the main sporting event milestones that have occurred here.
We'll bring this tour to an end by attending one of the horse races at the racecourse itself. While the race is ongoing, you'll be able to enjoy a coffee or mineral water with a snack. If you wish, you can even bet on your favourite jockey.
Once the race has ended, we'll return to the hotels, where we're expected to arrive after around 2 or 2.5 hours together.
