The Plaza de Mayo is the epicenter of Ranchos -the head city of the party- and a meeting point for its inhabitants, from where you can see different buildings: the Nuestra Señora del Pilar Church, the first Municipal Palace, current headquarters of the Rural Society, iconic bars and restaurants.
The Roman-colonial style temple was built in 1863, has two secondary altars and a main one, in which the Virgen del Pilar, Patron Saint of the district, is located.
During the payment visit, the Ranchos Fort and the Marta Inés Martínez Historical Museum open their doors to display objects related to the origins of the town. In addition, the Railway Museum created by Adolfo Giles, a former worker at the old local station, presents collections of beacons, signage, communication elements, uniforms and photographs.
Along with sport fishing and the sighting of native fauna, nautical sports are the classic spectacle in the immense 34-hectare lagoon that invites you to connect with the wild landscape of the Buenos Aires countryside.
The gastronomic pearl of General Paz is the prairie honey, which captivates with its notes of lotus, thistle and carqueja, typical blooms of the Salado Basin. “It’s smooth, very clear and goes perfect with mead, or beers because it doesn’t alter its flavor,” explained Leonardo Giménez, head of Bee Palace, a family beekeeping business.
Eighteen years ago they began selling the product and its derivatives -propolis, royal jelly, pollen-, and five years ago, with the production of beers made with honey. In the store at 77 bis 3828, you can taste the Honey, the Red Honey or the Sweet Stout.
With the Recreo app, the place offers promotions: two kilos of honey + a free porrón, or two liters of Honey beer + a free porrón.
For those who wish to learn about the fascinating organization of bees, the guided tour by Don Nino, an enterprise located in the town of Loma Verde, will be fascinating.
“We suggest that they come on sunny and warm days because the bees tend to get nervous with the rain,” recommended Roberto Inverti, in charge of the initiative that proposes to experience beekeeping: put on the famous white suit and perform tasks with these incredible insects.
Nature, archeology and food kilometer zero
Monte Hermoso, known for its warm water beaches with movie sunsets over the sea, offers other must-sees such as the Sauce Grande lagoon, the archaeological reserve, sustainable gastronomy and an emblematic construction.
The proximity to the sea gives the lake complex a unique biodiversity. For fans of sport fishing and nautical activities, it is paradise; For those who love bird watching and photographic safaris, it is a dream.

There is Biguá, a restaurant that opened its doors a year and a half ago with a menu that cares for the environment: “We use local, seasonal and proximity products,” explained Osvaldo Carbajo, owner of the space that seeks to reduce the carbon footprint.
Because of this look at the kitchen, the establishment does not have a fixed menu but rather dishes made from the products that nature offers in each season of the year. At this time, mushroom pâté, grilled palometa (sea fish) and pasta with durum wheat semolina, olive oil and free-range eggs that come from an olive grove in Coronel Dorrego.
“The value of a four-step menu is between $2,500 – $2,700 and has a 10% discount with the ReCreo app. We are flexible, we adapt to different situations. You can also order a main course and dessert,” explained Carbajo.

Built in 1906, another highlight of Monte Hermoso is the Recalada Lighthouse, the tallest in South America. This marine beacon guides sailors entering the Bahía Blanca estuary, and currently visitors are not allowed to ascend.
The Pehuén Co Nature Reserve, to the west of the city on the beach sector and six kilometers from the center, captivates with traces of seven thousand years old.
