I was unable to think that a prision can be a natural paradise, please be welcome to Martín García Island. It is located between Argentina and Uruguay. It is one of the biggest islands in the River Plate and the very first known for the spanish colonizers. It is famous because it was the prision of 3 argentinian presidents, Alvear, Frondizi and Perón, whom after this chapter of his personal history (stayed for 3 days in the island) was released because of the argentinian people asked for hi freedom and was almost a civil war. Those who know me, can assure how much I love traveling and sightseeing on weekends in the cities I live. They know that I am half nerd and I like nature and ecotourism. The island offers basic services but there is Wifi and mobile phone antennas. Hostal and camping. Drinking water. Restaurants, only 3. Peace, listen to the birds it is one of my advices. Bring repellent and protector. For those who also enjoy bird watching, there is a viewpoint. You can take a bicycle on the boat. Level of luxury A LOT depends on how you define luxury. This tour was definitely a new point where i find inspiration, to write and to rest. Not only ex-presidentes stayed here also writers as Rubén Dario the most well known Nicaraguan writer. There he wrote his most famous poem "Marcha Triunfal" in 1895 so where death and war used to live together everyday very important people from all over latin america found inspiration to keep going and make revolutions in our countries. I have felt this spirit and I can say that inspire me today to write this article to share with you and invite you to a moon bath in Martín García Island.
