The Recoleta area is a typical "French architecture-style" district known for its squares, parks, cafés, galleries and the La Recoleta Cemetery Cementerio de la Recoleta, one of Argentina's most important cemeteries.

The neighbourhood has been referred to as the Paris of the Americas, many Fin de Siècle French-style palaces and villas were built in the area, especially on Avenida Alvear with its sophisticated restaurants, up-scale shopping and mansions built by the afluent families of Buenos Aires, (today some used as embassies), and one of America's most luxurious hotels, the grand five-star Alvear Palace Hotel, Four Seasons Hotel. Confitería La Biela is one of the city's most famous cafés and is patronized by authors, politicians, and other celebrities. On the square facing the cemetery is an enormous rubber tree; its huge tentacle-like lower branches cast a shade over La Biela's popular terrace. Known as the Gran Gomero, it was planted in 1878 and is 50 metres wide.

Nightlife is also very active and trendy, with the R.M. Ortíz pedestrian passage (Recoleta Village) known for its outdoor dining, pubs and cinemas.

Next to the Basilica, on the site of the Franciscan convent, is the Recoleta Cultural Centre, a major gallery for contemporary visual art, set in a dark pink chapel. Nearby is the Buenos Aires Design Centre, featuring high design, architecture and interior design shops. The belle époque Palais de Glace, originally an ice rink and ballroom, now serves as an exhibition centre.
