Hola, Montevideo!
Montevideo invites you to discover its endless public squares, tree-lined avenues and quiet neighbourhood streets. The old town, known as "Ciudad Vieja", is the epicentre of the city's culture. Here you will find bookshops, theatres and the most significant colonial buildings from the first decades of independence, such as the Cabildo and the Metropolitan Basilica, both in Plaza de la Constitución, and the prestigious Solís Theatre, which symbolises Uruguayan culture.
Facing the port is the market, one of the most important and fascinating places in the old city. Another typical place in this part of the city is the Sarandí pedestrian street, where you'll find art galleries, craft stalls and street performers. If you want to relax by the sea, Montevideo has one of the best beaches in the country: the long and sandy Playa de los Pocitos. Book one of our cheap flights to Montevideo!
