A
visit to the historic center of Colonia del Sacramento is
like a walk back in time. Founded in 1680 by the Portuguese,
this old colonial town is renowned for its cobbled, windy streets
and colorful houses reminiscent of old Lisbon.
Due to its colonial beginnings, the city's layout is different
from the majority of Uruguayan cities. Its cobbled streets
and houses alternate with small bars, excellent restaurants,
art
and craft shops, museums and a large yacht harbor. Hostels in Colonia del
