What to do and see in Montevideo, Montevideo Department: The Best Nature & Parks

October 10, 2021 Vergie Nakamoto

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.

Parque Rodo

This seaside park not only has the usual park amenities - trees and a lake - but also has restaurants, discotheques, an amusement center and a summer theater.

Reviewed By AdrianK6 - Warsaw, Poland

Parque Rodo lies not far away from the center and the beaches. Great place to rest among exotic palmtrees and other plants. Beautiful Lake, worth a visit

Jardin Botanico

Reviewed By restrapo - Montevideo, Uruguay

As oasis of peace, tranquility and reflection not too far outside of Montevideo centro. What better way to get away from it all than a stroll through the beautiful and lush Jardin Botanico in Prado. I recommend spending at least one hour here to explore the various paths. Signs point to Asia floral. Be sure to have your phone or camera ready to capture spectacular shots of nature. Well--maintained location and beautiful.
