If you happened to miss the 40 day party you can check the Museo del Carnaval to get a glimpse and taste of the the worlds longest party.   While the Carnaval parade in Rio may be the most famous the Carnaval in Montevideo runs the longest, 40 days give or take a day or two for rain delays. It starts with a parade but in the days which follow there are many venues showcasing 3 - 4 tablados every night. The museum will take you through this marvellous event. #our4afar #carnival #familyfriendly #montevideo #uruguay
