Widest avenue in the world!


Buenos Aires has the widest street in the world, Avenida 9 de Julio. Too wide to even fit all of the lanes in a picture so I got an ariel too!
Notice the people crosssing the street, it will take them two light changes to make it all the way across.


Go ahead, count 'em....16 lanes!


This is the most famous part of the street, at the obelisk. Also, tends to be home of all of the cities riots which occur at least several times a month. They never seem to get that out of hand. Why so many? I'm not sure either. Every time I ask, the only answer anyone gives is, "We are a passionate people and this is how we express ourselves." Hmmmmm.........
