Part 4/8:
No trip to Montevideo would be complete without a visit to Estadio Centenario, the iconic football stadium that hosted the very first World Cup final in 1930. Constructed specifically for this landmark event, the stadium holds significant historical value and features a museum that celebrates the rich history of football in Uruguay.
Upon entering, visitors are greeted with exhibits that showcase the legendary match where Uruguay triumphed over Argentina 4-2 in front of a crowd of nearly 70,000. The entrance fee of just seven euros is a small price to pay for such a deep dive into soccer history—a top recommendation for anyone visiting the city.
