Nice place to visiti, a "must" I should say. Try to visit it during saturday mornings or sunday mornings or during the week BUT ONLY in the morning-noon, and early afternoon. Once banks close and employees leave home, this neighbourhood becomes dangerous. Please visit the museums there, there are many where you can experience life 200 years ago, ALL THE MUSEUMS IN URUGUAY ARE FREE!!!! so, enjoy! Ex: Museo Romantico, Palacio Taranco, Casa de lavalleja, Cabildo, etc. Also visit Artigas Mausoleum, located below plaza independencia, it is very solemn, and nice. Many people don{t like it because it was built during the dictatorship, but me, as an architect I can tell that it is worth to see. It is very simple and produces a big impact. Note that this big place has no columns. And the ligh that iluminates Artiga{s urne is natural coming from the ceiling. Enjoy Montevideo, and do not forget to walk along the coast line. Have fun, and welcome back!!!!

Uruguay is a country that traditionally receives travellers with the natural manner of its grounds and inhabitants. Tourists of the whole world come looking for the beauty of its sceneries and the warmth of the Uruguayans, which are a distinctive symbol of this country. To the traditional tourist places such as Punta del Este and Colonia, you can add other destinations of spectacular growth like the oceanic coast of Rocha, that in the last year increased visitors in more than 100 %. Wonderful beaches for all tastes: from almost virgins up to those that organize musical shows, and from those of wild waves up to the family oriented. Also the coast with its thermal zone is in big demand by the tourism, since these waters that emerge from big depths and at high temperatures are much valued for their therapeutic and rejuvenation properties and as well as for fun, with two aquatic parks that are the delight of young… and old.
