A Year in Uruguay

The Prado neighborhood was once one of Montevideo's most fashionable, but in recent decades it seems to have fallen out of favor. (Eclipsed pehaps by the rise of Carrasco and other waterfront barrios.) Prado still has a feeling of elegance & there are some impressive mansions there. Tabaré Vázquez, Uruguay's president lives in Prado. For us, its main draw has been the Parque Prado for Semana Criolla, Expo Rural, and other events.
