A few weeks back Colonia del Sacramento was mentioned as being one of the top places to visit in Uruguay. The oldest town in Uruguay, it sits Rio de La Plata in southeastern Uruguay, facing Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The cobblestone streets of Old Colonia, and the fortresses, ports and museums, combine to warrant at least a couple days of your visit to Uruguay. If you are not sure where to start
, stop by the Tourist Information office downtown on General Flores and Rivera St, just outside of the walled town. The will be able to help point you in the right direction with helpful information, including maps and brochures. Phone: 2-61-41/2-37-00.
