Places to Visit in Uruguay

A small Country by South American standards Uruguay boasts an unspoiled coastline of pristine wild beaches and the remains of centuries-old colonial fortresses are scattered around the Country. The UNESCO World Heritage-listed Colonia del Sacramento is a fascinating place to visit in Uruguay, a charming river port with cobbled streets, superb architecture and a beguiling mixture of Portuguese and Uruguayan influences.
