Sarandi will soon be "Rue Paradi" of Montevideo


I have known this beautiful city only for the past two years and the pedestrian street of Sarandi has never looked better to me than today, As if it is aware and proud of all the positive changes happening after years of being forgotten. The slow process of maintaining many old buildings is finally showing result and new shops are opening. In addition, new paving is in progress and Plaza Matriz under maintenance. In the lovely sun shine of today, the sound of the harp played by a musician, the colorful handcrafts of the artisans, the shops and the open air cafes were all contributing to the liveliness of this pedestrian as well as welcoming  the tourists. The cleanliness of the pedestrian was also surprisingly impressive. This has to be only  a beginning......the old city (ciudad vieja) and dow town (centro) should and will gain their original glory as they are the window of this country to the outside world.
