After the great comments that you leaved me, Thanks!!!. I feel the need to explain the picture.
This stained glass picture was taken at The Argentino Hotel Casino & Resort. It is located in Piriápolis, since 1930.
You can see this window at the main lobby.
A little about the hotel (I promised more pictures to come):
It is a great building, great location!!!!. It has 4 stars, after seeing the rooms and the plastic furniture around the main pool area, I wont give it 4 stars (but I am not and expert in this matter, I just travel a lot). The building and the history of the place are interesting. The staff, very nice people. The kids club is great. I Did not eat there, and the spa, I did not visit.

Flag


This is the flag of Uruguay, designed by Joaquín Suárez. It is officially in effect since July 1830. There are four blue stripes and five withes, they represents the nine provinces that existed at the time of the independence.
The sun is a symbol of independence, it is the"Sun of May".
