Gateway of the Citadel: Montevideo's 1745 Stone Portal to Ciudad Vieja
★4.9(396)
Walk through this massive stone portal to transition from modern Plaza Independencia into the colonial streets of the Old Town. It is the only surviving piece of the city's 18th-century walls. It takes five minutes to see, but the photo op is top-tier if you frame the Palacio Salvo through the arch. Most visitors pass through on an electric bicycle tour or a private walk; skip the midday crowds for better lighting.
Address: Sarandí, Montevideo, Departamento de Montevideo, 11000
