ARCHITECTURAL EXTRAVAGANZA for a water tank........!
Dec 2020
Magnificent city icon and the thought it was designed to contain water for the inhabitants nearby seems like an architectural extravagance. At first sighting, we thought it was a fortress overlooking the Atlantic ocean and overseeing maritime activity. Nope, just a colossal water tank.

One of the landmarks of Mar del Plata
Feb 2020 • Family
I took the guided tour and really enjoyed. Amazing view of Mar del Plata from the top of the tower. It's really impressive how the tower is well preserved and became a must seen attraction for tourist, students and everyone who loves history.

The Torre Tanque is located in the heart of the city of Mendoza. It is impressive & the plaza around it is very well kept

Decent experience
Aug 2019 • Family
This was a stop on our tour of the city. The history is interesting and the tour guide lively and knowledgeable. The view from the top is breathtaking and worth climbing up the hundreds of stairs. Wouldn't recommend climbing the stairs if you're not physically healthy. There is an elevator but it wasn't working when we visited.

360 degree view of Mar del Plata

This is an interesting visit for you to have a lovely view of the whole city of Mar del Plata. It is the old water tower which provided water to the city and has been turned onto a tourist point.

a very nice view and for FREE
Mar 2019 • Couples
You have to be there during their 'working hours'. This is a city water functioning place. So, no Sundays. But it's worth going up the lift, you can spend all the time you want at the top of the tower and it's a beautiful view of the town. The few people that are there 'on service' are very nice and helpful.

The place to see Mar del Plata from above.

La Torre Tanque from OSSE is the place to see Mar del Plata from above at both day or night and it won't cost you a dime.

Stunning views
Apr 2018 • Friends
It’s worth a trip to gain views from a 74 metre high view point.
There are 194 steps but luckily there is a good lift.
This is a free attraction, the tower supplies water to a neighbourhood mainly of good residential houses from early 20th century where affluent families spent their summers here.
A good way to spend a couple of hours.
