Montevideo is the capital city of the Oriental Re- public of Uruguay, the political and economic center of the country, and the MERCOSUR administrative headquarters. It was founded between 1724 and 1730 as a fortified town next to a port on the River Plate, in the big bay which holds Cerro de Montevideo (Montevideo’s Hill) . During this period, spanish families arrived from Buenos Aires and the Canary Islands to populate the new city.

Montevideo is a key destination in Latin America. All over the year,the city offers visitors a diverse cultural and recreational agenda, quality services, and beautiful landscapes, along with security and the typical hospitality of Uruguayans. Montevideo is also known as the seat for international congresses and events.

Independence Square Montevideo as a fortified town became an open city when the fortifications of the colonial times were pulled down after Uruguay won its independence. Independence Square is the link between the old and the new part of the city, and marks the beginning of 18 de Julio street, the main avenue in the country. Around the square lie some of the most outstanding buildings of the city, such as Solís Theatre, Salvo Palace, Gate of the Citadel, Es- tévez Palace, and Executive Tower, the seat of the government.

Its design resembles commendatory squares, typical of French classicism where the Uruguayan government is represented. In the middle of the square is the monument to General José Gervasio Artigas, Uruguay’s national hero. Underneath, it is possible to find the Mausoleum where his remains lies.
