Colonia del Sacramento is a city in the southwest of Uruguay, by the Río de la Plata, across from Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is one of the oldest cities in Uruguay and serves as the capital of the Colonia department. The South Quarter, the Historic District of Colonia del Sacramento, recognized as a Cultural Patrimony of Humanity by UNESCO in 1995, is a prominent tourist attraction. Colonia del Sacramento has preserved its original characteristics, reflective of its unique colonial history. Founded in 1680 by the Portuguese Manuel Lobo, the city shifted from Portuguese dominion to Spanish rule several times before the Declaration of Independence in 1825. These events transformed the colonial capital into a melting pot of architectural styles, where Portuguese colonial buildings and Spanish houses stand side by side. Its charming houses, cobbled streets, iconic lanterns, and magical sunsets continue to captivate visitors. The Field Gate, the Street of Sighs, the lighthouse, art galleries, and other historic sites make one feel as though they are walking through history brought back to life.
