Fuudis: A new concept in the Buenos Aires dining scene

Fuudis, a new concept in the Buenos Aires dining scene, combines live artistic performances, tours of the city and innovative culinary experiences.

In Tandil, during the Easter holidays, when 10.000 believers visit the Mount Calvary (Monte Calvario) along the Way of the Cross (Via de las Cruces), it is possible to watch fourteen groups of sculptures, illustrating the sequence of the route of Christ to the Cross, which ends at Monte Calvario. It is one of the more important religious festivities in Tandil and this destination can be visited any time in the year. I took this pictures at the top of this Mount where you can find this fantastic Sculpture. You can see handkerchief at the botton of this sculpture .
