Colonial Archives - Buenos Aires For 91 Days

Day Trip to Colonia del Sacramento

A visit to Colonia del Sacramento is one of the easiest and most popular day trips you can take from Buenos Aires. Cheekily referred to by porteños as the city's 49th barrio, Colonia actually belongs to Uruguay. We recently took the slow ferry across the river to check out this beautifully upheld colonial village.

Latin American Art in the Museo Isaac Fernández Blanco
