This wonderful city impresses with its variety of architectural styles, wonderful parks and avenues, as well as the grandeur of the Uruguay River. To learn the city’s history better, you need to take an excursion to its main notable places.
It is best to start your sightseeing from the central square, which is called Plaza de la Constitución. Here the city’s largest Cathedral was founded; its construction took place in the early 19th century. A little later, the Town Hall building was erected. These structures represent an amazing and harmonious combination of two architectural styles-Baroque and Classicism. Among the appealing architectural landmarks are also the theatre called “Solis” and the new Town Hall building.
In the city, there are about two dozen theatres, the most popular of which are Tinglado, Nuevo Stella, Circular, and Mercedes. Fans of exhibitions and displays should definitely visit the Museum of Natural History, the National Historical Museum, the Museum of Natural History, the National Museum of Fine Arts, the Pedagogical Museum, the Zoological Museum, as well as the Municipal Museum of Fine Arts. And this is far from the complete list of cultural events that this cozy city can offer. There are also two zoos and a breathtakingly beautiful planetarium, where interesting performances and lectures are held. A vibrant cultural program can be complemented by relaxing by the riverbank or by visiting restaurants featuring national cuisine.
