Japanese Garden
Located in the Prado district behind the Blanes Museum, this site is a Japanese-style garden. Travelers visiters go here to walk through a landscape designed with traditional East Asian garden elements, providing a quiet environment separate from the city's main urban noise.
Getting There
The garden is situated in the Prado neighborhood, away from the city center. From the center of Montevideo, you can reach the area via local bus or taxi. The trip typically takes between 20 and 40 minutes depending on traffic conditions.
