Montevideo
To get your bearings in the city
centre, take a walk from Plaza Independencia, the
grandest of Montevideo's squares, through the Ciudad
Vieja to the port. On the plaza is the black-marbled
Mauseleo de Artigas, topped by an enormous statue of the
national hero, and the 26-storey Palacio Salvo, the
tallest building in South America when built in 1927 and
still the tallest in the city today.

Culture
Uruguay may be a small country but it has impressive
artistic and literary traditions. International acclaim
has greeted artists such as Pedro Figari, a painter of
bucolic scenes. Theatre is popular and playwrights such
as Mauricio Rosencof - a former Tupamaros founder
tortured by the military government in the 1970s - are
prominent in cultural life. Most of the country's
musical and dance traditions (folk songs,polkas,
waltzes, etc) came from Europe but developed local
hybrids. Football is a national obsession. |
