Arboretum Lussich, Protected arboretum in Maldonado, Uruguay.
The Lussich Arboretum extends across 192 hectares, featuring numerous walking paths that connect different sections filled with local and international tree species.
Antonio Lussich established this botanical space in 1896 by importing seeds from various continents to transform the rocky coastal terrain into a forested area.
