Polo Championship In Argentina

We’re playing polo for the Geo Quiz: Some of the world’s best polo players are currently competing in the Argentina Open Polo Championship.

The venue is one of the barrios or neighborhoods of Buenos Aires.

This posh neighborhood we want you to name borders on the Rio de la Plata, the river that divides Argentina from Uruguay

Iconic revolutionary Che Guevara once lived in the neighborhood.

But for the next two weeks all attention is on what the locals call the “Cathedral of Polo.”

So which barrio of Buenos Aires is this ‘cathedral’ to be found?

The answer is Palermo. Anchor Lisa Mullins gets details from Pascal Renauldon who’s covering the competition for Equestrio magazine.
