Miguelete Creek (Spanish: Arroyo Miguelete) is a Uruguayan stream, crossing Montevideo Department. It flows into the Bay of Montevideo and then into the Río de la Plata. It has a very significant history behind, since colonial times.[1]
Near its shores are located the big urban park known as Prado and the historical Juan Manuel Blanes Museum.
