Timeline
12:00
Arrive at the Museo Blanes right when it opens at 12:00. This is the quietest time to explore the Uruguayan art collection and the Japanese garden without the midday rush.
12:45
Walk a short distance to Mastra, a bar inside the Mercado Agrícola. Order a creative beer from their excellent selection to enjoy the rest of the afternoon.
13:15
Mercado Agrícola de Montevideo
Stroll through the Mercado Agrícola itself. This historic enclosed market, rebuilt in the 2010s, offers a pleasant atmosphere to digest your drink and browse the local produce.
Local tip
The museum opens at 12:00, so timing your arrival then ensures you have the space to yourself. Mastra is open from 11:00, so you can grab a drink immediately after the museum visit.
