Overview

Discover Barrio Prado, the green and aristocratic lung of Montevideo, in an experience that combines spectacular landscapes with a deep historical analysis. This tour is an immersion into the local geography, flora and fauna, as well as the urban development of the city from its foundation until today.

What we will explore on this tour:

- Roots and Identity: we will analyze the impact of European migratory currents (Italian, Spanish, French, Portuguese and British) that shaped Uruguay's cultural and folkloric heritage.

- Ethnic Heritage: We will delve into the influence of the Celtic and Latin populations -from Friulians and Piedmontese to Galicians, Scots and Irish- that settled in the Prado and defined its unique character.

- Nature and Landscape: We will tour the natural environment of the neighborhood, learning about the species that inhabit its gardens and the importance of this biological sanctuary in the city.

Meeting Point: We will meet at the intersection of Millán Avenue and Luis Alberto de Herrera Avenue, the historic heart of this neighborhood.
