Colonia del Sacramento is a city in south-western Uruguay, by the Río de la Plata, facing Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is the oldest town in Uruguay. Founded in 1680 by Admiral Manuel Lobo, it is a typical Portuguese city of the XVII contrasting with the architectural mapping shared by all cities of Spanish origin. Today charms tourists from all over the world with its well-preserved architectural richness, and it is renowned for its historic quarter, a World Heritage Site. One of the curiosities is that Colonia has a Plaza de Toros (bullring), which is abandoned because bull fighting was prohibited by the Uruguayan national government in 1912.
