Montevideo is the capital of Uruguay and is home to almost a half the country’s population. Montivideans have very strong European origins, with Italian and Spanish descent being the most common.
The city’s architecture is influenced by its many European immigrants, including Spanish, Portuguese, French and British. The richness of this city’s architecture is unrivalled in South America.
Montevideo has a charming, maritime feel to it and water is its abiding feature. The shoreline is devoted to miles of beaches and the port is a thriving hub of activity.
