The second time I go. Unfortunately, on this last occasion I was not able to climb the tower either, due to a problem in the elevator. However, the museum is extremely interesting from a religious and architectural point of view and also to understand the work carried out in the construction of the temple by the artisans and workers. As for the church, it is very beautiful and really huge.

We went to La Plata just to visit this cathedral and it was worth it. We were bot aware that there was a museum and a lift that takes you several stores close to the top of the cathedral. That was quite impressive and interesting. If you have visited lots of this type of cathedrals in Europe you probably will not get the excitement but this not thst commonly find in LatinAmerica.

A monumental building backstopping the very large Plaza Moreno. The exterior architecture is visually stunning, the interior with vaulted ceilings a bit more reserved with very nice stained glass windows. Well worth a visit.
We came for a day visit to La Plata from Buenos Aires on the train from Constitution Station. 1 hour and 10 minute ride is a comfortable air conditioned train. The train also uses (requires) the SUBTE card for access. On arrival in La Plata its an interesting walk on Diagonal 80 to Plaza San Martin and then on Av 51 to Plaza Moreno and the church.

Architectural beauty, to enjoy. Must see in front of the main square. One of the most beautiful cathedrals in Argentina. Whether or not one professes the Catholic religion is beautiful to the eye and is a beauty of construction.

in my personal opinion, it is so much beauty but I prefer the money of this construction in the hands of other people. La Plata is not a rich city in a not rich country...More People need place and food to live better...SORRY!

This is a huge edifice which shouts its history across a vast and tidy square.The interior has massive vaulted ceilings and you can’t help but feel his presence.
No entrance fee go in and spend as much time as you like.

The cathedral is nice and worth the visit. But the real treat is to climb up the tower stairs and enjoy a nice view. Try to go late in the afternoon so to glimpse at the sunset, a very nice setting indeed.

Hola buenos días quisiera me puedan ayudar con 2 cosas:
1.- qué lugar me recomiendan para hospedarme teniendo en cuenta que haré un city tours, iré al Tigre y tambien La Plata, me hablaron de San Telmo, Palermo y Buenos Aires cerca al Obelisco pero no sé donde.
2.- Desde Buenos Aires como llego a La Plata y cuánto me costaría.
Desde ya muchas gracias

para llegar a La Plata te tomás el micro de la linea Plaza o Costera Criolla que lo pagás con la tarjeta SUBE, estos colectivos te dejan en la terminal de La Plata y podés acceder a ellos desde la parada del metrobus a unas cuadras del obelisco. También podés tomarte un tren desde Constitución. Una vez en la ciudad caminás hasta la calle 14 entre 53 y 54 y te encontrás con Plaza Moreno frente a la Catedral....desde la terminal te podés tomar un taxi también o caminás hasta calle 7 y te tomás el micro de la linea 214 que va para calle 12 y te deja ahí nomás de la catedral. Te recomiendo irte caminando para no perderte de nada e irte familiarizando con la ciudad, en La Plata está todo cerca y además vas conociendo otros edificios como el pasaje Dardo Rocha a la altura de 50 entre 6 y 7. Un saludo!
