Villa Serrana   In the same rocky range of hills near Minas where Richard Geere built a series of Buddhist temples as a refuge for Tibetan monks in exile, lies a beautiful place that lingers in the minds of the Uruguayan people who regard it with a sense of deep fondness and longing to return. This place is Villa Serrana in the province of Lavalleja. Salto El Penitente is waterfall about a 50-meter drop of crystalline waters, and there is an excellent restaurant on the site. You can also slide across the gorge by taking a thrilling ride on a canopy cable.

We recommend to make reservation previously to check availability for visit to the temple and arrange other appointments for visit different places in the area.
