Name of Shop: Punta Carretas Shopping Center
Where once was a jail, nowadays there is a fancy shopping mall... Yes, you are reading it right: a J - A - I - L. Punta Carretas Shopping Center is situated at an amazing building, the Penal de Punta Carretas (which was recycled, obviously!) There you will find all kind of shops, cinemas and restaurants; of course, it is not very different of this kind of places in any other city of the world, but the building and its history are really interesting.En donde una vez hubo una cárcel, hoy se encuentra un centro comercial de lujo... Sí, están leyendo bien: una CÁRCEL. Punta Carretas Shopping center está situado en un impactante edificio, el Penal de Punta Carretas (que fue reciclado ¡obviamente!) Allí encontrarán todo tipo de comercios, cines y restaurantes; claro está, no es muy diferente a cualquier otro centro comercial del mundo, pero el edificio y su historia realmente valen la visita.
What To Buy: Anything you want / needCualquier cosa que deseen / necesiten

Name of Shop: Tres Cruces
Montevideo has four shopping malls, but the most curious ones are Punta Carretas (previous tip), situated in an ancient jail, and this one, Tres Cruces, which is at the same time shopping mall and bus station, so there you can buy a shirt, have lunch or take a bus to Punta del Este!Montevideo tiene cuatro centros comerciales, pero los más curiosos son el de Punta Carretas (viñeta anterior), situado en una antigua cárcel, y éste, Tres Cruces, que es a la vez centro comercial y terminal de buses, por lo que allí pueden comprarse una camisa, almorzar o tomar un bus hasta Puta del Este!
