5Colonia del Sacramento
Colonia del Sacramento is one of the oldest towns in Uruguay.
The capital of the Colonia Department is also renowned for its historic quarter, a World Heritage Site. Totally worth seeing!
The best part of this city is that it remained exactly like in its good, old days; with very humble historic buildings and cobbled streets.
Oh, you might want to watch your steps. Ladies, high heels don’t belong there!
Overlooking Rio de Plata, Colonia del Sacramento is a popular tourist attraction with notable monuments, such as Porto de Campo, Basilica del Santisimo Sacramento, Portuguese Museum, Casa de Nacarello, Viceroy’s House and Plaza de toros Real de San Carlos.
