| Montevideo,
Uruguay |
| Located between the Rio de la Plata and the Atlantic
Ocean, Uruguay has nearly 500 kilometers of sandy beaches.
Montevideo is home for nearly two million people and
boasts a unique style. The city’s architecture
blends colonial, European and modern influences. The
Old Town, a small peninsula near the metropolitan port,
offers many examples of the country’s colonial
past. Not far from this modern city is an amazing landscape
of hilly meadows and rivers. The world famous resort
town of Punte del Este is only a short drive or bus
ride from the capital. Due to the high value of the
dollar, Uruguay is an extremely inexpensive place to
live and study. |
