What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors find the Kilómetro 0 Monument to be a striking landmark, particularly beautiful when illuminated at night. While it's primarily a quick photo stop with limited infrastructure, its tribute to wine and its visual appeal make it a worthwhile brief visit for those in the area.
"A good tourist attraction, located at one of the entrances to the city of San Rafael. There's no dedicated parking, and it's best to walk there. A few cement benches for resting, but little tourist infrastructure. But it's always a good spot for a typical photo with a lovely history of the monument."

"The lights come on at 8:30 p.m. (March). The monument is very beautiful, both day and night."
Laura Rius Blanco
"I'll be blunt, it's just what you see, it's in the middle of a roundabout and there are usually people sitting in the middle, so it's basically just to pass by and take a photo (if you can) and nothing more, it's in the middle of traffic and there's nothing to do, that's what you see."
