The history of Colonia de Sacramento can basically be summarized by saying it was founded in 1680 by Portugal and then it was conquered by Spain and then it went back to Portugal… Spain… Portugal… Spain. It traded hands many times. Its location on the banks of the River de la Plate across from Buenos Aires was strategic for trade. It is now a UNESCO World Heritage site and popular with tourists for its cobble stoned streets and colonial buildings.
It isn’t a big place and the best word to describe it is tranquil. All we did was walk around and eat. It is a nice one or two day trip from Buenos Aires. For me personally what made it so much fun were the people who shared it with me. Sebastian, Nati, Matias, Nico and I had a great time. I hope the rest are able to join us on the road at some point in the future.
