Colonia del SacramentoA must-see for any visitor to Uruguay is the historic town of
Colonia del Sacramento, the country's oldest settlement and a
celebrated UNESCO World Heritage site. It is situated on the River
Plate, almost opposite Buenos Aires in Argentina from where most
visitors ferry across on day trips. Dating from 1680 the quaint and
quirky town is riddled with narrow cobbled streets lined with
brightly coloured houses, vibey bars, excellent restaurants and art
and craft shops. Colonia is about two hours by road from
Montevideo. Local operators offer day trips. |
