MONTEVIDEO, THE CAPITAL CITY OF URUGUAY

In this video, we travel to Montevideo, the capital city of Uruguay. We stayed in Montevideo for only half a day so unfortunately we could not do as much as we would have liked to do, but even in a short period of time that we were there, we tried to visit some of the most famous places of the city. Also, in this trip we used the services of another company that offers the trips to Colonia del Sacramento and Montevideo. This company is called Buquebus and in this video we also do a comparison of the experience that you may have while traveling with Colonia Express versus Buquebus. We discuss the comfort, the speed of the whole process of going through immigration and boarding the boats and also the price so you can have a much better idea about the differences. Our first stop after arriving in Montevideo was a square called Plaza Independencia which is surrounded by some of the iconic buildings in the city such as Palacio Salvo, Palacio Estevez (Museo de la Casa de Gobierno), Teatro Solis, and Gateway of the Citadel (Puerta de la Ciudadela). After visiting Plaza Independencia, we walked through a part of the city that is known as the historic part of the city and starts from the Gateway of the Citadel structure. The street is called Sarandí and since this stretch of the street is a pedestrian only street, it is referred to as Peatonal Sarandí. next stop was at a square called Plaza de la Constitución which is another cute little square surrounded by some nice buildings and a few restaurants. The metropolitan cathedral of Montevideo is also located next to this square. After lunch, we continued our walk through Sarandí street and reached another square called Plaza Zabala. This was yet another square surrounded by beautiful buildings, shops and some museums. Next we reached another square called Plaza de la Fuente which is another square very close to the port and where the terminal of Buquebus is located. Right next to this square, you will also find Mercado del Puerto which is a public market full of restaurants, bars, souvenir stores, etc. We hope you enjoy the video :)
