Itinerary
The Argentine National Congress, a symbol of democracy and power, plays a key role in El Eternauta as a site of resistance. In the story, it becomes a strategic stronghold against the alien invasion, highlighting its significance not just as a political landmark but as a beacon of collective struggle and defiance.
Maipú Station, terminal of the historic Tren de la Costa, appears in El Eternauta as a key point of escape and movement through a city under siege. Its quiet suburban setting contrasts with the chaos of the invasion, symbolizing both vulnerability and the fleeting possibility of refuge in a collapsing world.
Elena’s building, where Juan Salvo’s ex-wife lives in El Eternauta TV series, is a somber, modern high-rise that reflects the isolation and emotional distance of a post-invasion Buenos Aires. It serves as a quiet but tense setting, symbolizing lost normalcy and personal disconnection amid chaos.
The Saavedra Bridge in El Eternauta TV series marks a key turning point as Juan Salvo and his group confront the harsh reality of the invasion. Its industrial, exposed structure becomes a tense crossing between safety and danger
The San Isidro Labrador Church, with its iconic neo-gothic architecture, serves as a striking visual landmark in El Eternauta TV series. It becomes a momentary point of hope and reflection for the characters, contrasting the spiritual refuge it represents with the fear and uncertainty of the alien invasion surrounding it.
In the TV series, Barrancas de Belgrano transforms into an eerie, atmospheric setting under the threat of invasion. Here, you'll have the chance to recreate a scene by taking a photo with a gas mask—just like in the show. Don’t worry, we’ll provide the mask!
Puente Pacífico sets the stage for intense, pivotal moments. Nearby, a dramatic plane crash shocks the city, marking a turning point in the invasion. Later, the towering Dorrego building becomes the backdrop for the show's powerful finale, making this area a symbol of chaos, resistance, and revelation.
