V!VA User‘s Description

Colonia del Sacramento (population: 117,600) is one of the most popular tourist towns in Uruguay. It is a ferry ride across the Río de la Plata from Buenos Aires and features historical gems like the oldest church in Uruguay, the only Plaza de Toros (bull ring) in Uruguay and a historic center with a fortress and contraband port that are now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Just west of Montevideo along the coast facing the Río de la Plata, Colonia del Sacramento features lovely Portuguese architecture dating back to the late 1600s and streets lined with sycamore trees.
