Top 10 Shopping in Centro, Montevideo Department
Montevideo, a port city and the capital of Uruguay, is a perfect destination for travelers looking for a relaxing stroll past colonial era buildings and along beautiful beaches. The Ciudadela Gateway, the only remaining section of the wall that once surrounded the entire city, now serves as the entrance to Ciudad Vieja, Montevideo's oldest neighborhood. Home to churches, museums, and theaters, at night the area comes alive with nightclubs playing Tango and Candombe music for crowds of dancers.

The Centro de Fotografía de Montevideo is located in the center of Montevideo right on bustling Avenida 18 de Julio. Once you pass through the glass doors of the Centro de Fotografía you enter a world ensconced by top notch photography and superb interior design. The layout is easy to follow. There are three exhibition floors. Be sure to take one of the vintage 19th century elevators, with tasteful green walls, up one floor to the next exhibition or down one floor to the basement exhibition. Upon arriving on the second floor, be sure to look up and appreciate the block glass ceiling. Amazing. The hard wood floors are strangely comforting and the silence, palpable. I will return. Lastly, well-stocked gift shop with wide-range of photojournalist book for your liking. Oh, by the way, entrance is free.

Every time I visit Montevideo I make the Mercado de los Artisanos my first stop for Uruguayan-made gifts to take home. Wonderful selection and reasonable prices as well. They have another location near the port market, but the Plaza Cagancha location is much larger and better. Highly recommend!!
