We'll stroll along its tree-lined streets, admire its houses and buildings, explore its social spaces, and discover why many consider it one of the most exclusive (or "posh") neighborhoods in Montevideo. Plus, in this video you'll learn: • The history of Punta Carretas and the origin of its name. • Its architecture and how it has evolved over time. • The only golf course located within a Montevideo neighborhood. • Why Punta Carretas is surrounded by the waters of the Río de la Plata. • How much properties cost and what it's like to live in this area. • The fascinating history of the Punta Carretas Shopping Center, which was formerly a prison, the site of one of the most famous escapes in Uruguayan history, and where figures who shaped the country's history were incarcerated. • The most exclusive shops and businesses in the neighborhood.
