The Unknow Uruguay

Making a local connection Uruguay

In 2020 i travel to Uruguay for the 2 time, i have already been in that country but in this time was different, the people, the places... I had the opportunity to talk with and the visit new places, like "Castillio Del Píria". This is a phenomenal place, the trees, the plants, the architecture was beautiful, this "Castillo" belong to a teacher of alchemy, so, this place was strange at the moment that i arrived, but, in 5 minutes in the castle the emotion was completely different, i feel like a cloud, free, light, so, i spent most of the time taking pictures and filming, it was like i was part of history of that place, that place was very symmetrical and i like to see things that are symmetrical, the way they set up that castle was like they were putting together a cake, perfectly placed and harmonious. I felt like I was back in time, more specifically, in the Middle Ages, I felt like a knight protecting and knowing the whole kingdom. After seeing the castle inside and out, I decided to explore the local flora, the smell of the flowers, the color of them, all combined with a summer day was a perfect combination, I felt in paradise with all those things happening in a short time, happiness took over my being and I just lay on the lawn, I felt the nature and the history made in front of me, I only managed to smile when I saw how beautiful the mixture of nature and humans became (in this case) the way the river reflected the sun, how the bees and butterflies reveled in that sunny afternoon was the best part for me. So, if you are close to Píria do not think twice to go to Piria Castle, it is an indescribable place (well, at least I tried to talk a little about it) but, here is the recommendation.
