(Translated by Google) It's incredible how it was restored after the tragic flooding caused by heavy rains and the flooding of the Paraitinga River, which devastated the city. I was in Ubatuba and it was chaos on the way back. But it passed and the Church is beautiful! (Original) incrível como ficou restaurada após a trágica inundação devidos as fortes chuvas e cheia do rio paraitinga.que devastou a cidade..estava em Ubatuba e foi um caos na volta..mas passou e a Igreja esta Linda!

(Translated by Google) A very beautiful church, with its history of reconstruction that enriches it even more. Inside the church you can see what remains of the old building. Some things have been preserved, but much of it has been faithfully restored to the original. (Original) Igreja muito bela, com sua história de reconstrução que a enriquece muito mais, dentro da igreja é possível ver o que restou da antiga construção, algumas coisas foram preservadas, mas grande parte foi restaurada de forma fiel as originais.

(Translated by Google) The church was rebuilt after a major flood. You can see parts of the original walls. It's worth a visit. (Original) A igreja foi reconstruída após grande enchente. É possível observar partes das paredes originais. Vale a visita.

This was an absolutely stunning Basilica. The second largest in the world only the Vatican is larger. The stone murals were beautiful along with everything else ..a must see.

Will definitely go back there one day. This is worth visiting.

The most breathing cathedral in Brazil, the spiritually makes you feel the amazing atmosphere that surrounds us. It is almost impossible not to feel better after your visit to this sacred place.

Considered the second biggest Catholic Temple of the world (after San Pedro Temple in Vatican) and the biggest in Brazil. Beautiful religious place with plenty of infrastructure to accommodate faithful from all places and renew their vows

It was bigger than o ever imagined. It’s like an entire city, it takes hours to walk around and be able to appreciate every detail. Lots of stores inside and restaurants. With the Covid-19 restrictions, we couldn’t see more of the inside details but it was worth it. They have mass every hour and multiple locations as well. I loved it. Perfect to buy gifts and there more attractions outside the Basilica as well. The entire city is filled with attractions and even the cities nearby.

This should be included in the must visit places in Brazil. The cathedral is huge and very beautiful. The dome ia decorated with paintings of Brazilian fauna. The sacred image of the Holly Mary, which was found by locals and is attributed to several miracles, is exposed there. The energy of this place is hard to describe.

Amazing place to visit Highly recommend to arrive early and avoid crowds. Still an amazing visit

Unfortunately I couldn't get inside cos it was close but it's beautiful architecture

It's beautiful, but there are a lot of people...

The parish priest tried to prevent a large flock of faithful to pray the Holy Rosary in front of the church. This had been announced days in advance. Instead he purposely rang all of the church bells, to make so much noise that nobody could understand a word - it was a wonderful experience to pray the Holy Rosary under such circumstance, against the orders of the pastor! *Shame on this parish pastor!*

Lovely spot for a stroll. They have very nice local products and you can sip on your coffee at the balcony whilst you admire the lavender fields. Worth a visit.

Very friendly, great for spending some time slowing down.

This beautiful place has good attendents!

Absolutely beautiful! Had a great time, at Base & Altar, all clean ann orderly, a LOT of families and kids. Great job!

Amazing experience in the middle of nature

Always when I visit this place I get impressed. There are wonderful views from everywhere. During my last visit I took the trail called Rancho Caído, which was amazing!

A completely different environment if you use the north west entrance. Warning the 12km road can be very bad. Warning 2: Arrive early the last entrance is around 2pm. You must leave the park by 5pm. This may change during they year so it is best to chemo in advance.

Wonderful view. Worth the long walking. Be prepared physically.

Incredible!! Didn’t have time for the entire park, but the southern entrance waterfalls and jungle is absolutely wonderful. Not a single thing to not love ❤️❤️ @nothin_but_views

Amazing and special place that takes you to your limits!

It's fun tô take the kids and it's very thematic! Beautiful to walk at night and even more beautiful in Christmas season. There is also a place there with one of the best hot chocolate I've ever tasted!

Main atraction on the city .must visit . And interesting emporiums who sells selectrd food from rio and minas gerais . Chocolate and trita are the main products .

It's beautiful and have some nice stores for local food, but i really thought that it would be bigger and have some more attractions

Funny and entertaining, walk around and find Christmas in the middle of an almost Brazil. Opened is definitely a different place to go to.

A miniature of Santa's town in the city of Penedo. The city is known for being a touristic city with major finnish heritage. This specific spot's audience are probably children and families.

Awesome place, great for shopping, eating and take many pictures.

Absolutely beautiful. We visited on a cloudy day so there weren’t any boats around.

Fantastic place to spend the day. Pack up with own goods and have a quiet time in paradise

A nice beach, crystal clear that you can see lots of fish.

Beautiful island with beautiful water! There are small islands along the way!

Very nice small beach,you need boat to go there.

Wonderfull islands next to Angra. Great place for snorkeling and taking pictures.

Amazing island . love it . You need to sée all the small island beside

Regular!!

The mall is really nice for the most part, easy to get to where you need to, tons of clothing/electronic stores. The elevators/escalators usually always work but sometimes don’t. The bathrooms at this mall are almost always extremely dirty, clogged toilets, non operable sinks, toilet paper is always out in 80% of the stalls and smells pretty bad 1/2 the time. There are some great places to eat here at the mall and more than enough parking. When you enter from the front of the mall there are always people that harass you to buy things (Usually mentos) and don’t take “NO”for an answer!! You just have to keep walking. I find that super obnoxious!!!!

The mall is big but the stores are surprisingly small,... But the place is clean (new)

Nice place to hang out and take nice photos. I love to spend all day there when I can.

Great experience, good variety of stores. Some good prices. Quite busy, but it was Saturday night. I really enjoyed the book selections.

great mall at brazil has a theme park inside an extinct volcano on the back super fun

Interesting Christmas Activities, lots of things for kids

Show 👏👏

Several stores , not really outlet price in my opinion - I saw most of stores with progressive discount system which forces you to buy too many items in the same store so you can see a price benefit. Looks safe with many guards.

Amazing place to go and find good prices

Nice clothes, good quality but too expensive for an outlet. We left together with 6 other customers because the airconditioner made it unsupportable to shop quietly. Far too cold.

Good place for shopping. International clothing and sports brands at very reasonable prices. Huge parking space. But, no signs of mentioning parking fees and spots to pay.

The place is big, clean and it has good options but unfortunately some stores displays products that are not on sale. This is absurd and outrageous! It's an outlet for God sake!

Excellent shopping structure but in the day that I went me and many people faced issues with park payment and to go out from there. It was 12/16/2017.

we can offer kn95 OR n95 masks with top quality and the best price. pls contact me. email: ferrezhou@gmail.com

Very nice museum. It's more an ethnic museum, where your can find handicrafts made by different ethnicities around Brazil. It's small but with an excellent and new discursive narrative

Incredible place.

Small, free and enchanting. Lovely museum ❤️

Must visit!

Free entrance and sympathetic museum. Quite compact and aimed at kids. Like!

Love this place, especially when there are expositions from Instituto MarAdentro!

Was closed during the day

Great beach stunning views of the mountains. Come with a group that preferably speaks Portuguese, people come up to you constantly trying to sell things and also ask for selfies. Beautiful people and great water, but with only two people it did feel very vulnerable.

The beach is spectacular and really good for people watching and sunbathing. It is never boring to stroll along the beach and notice all the happenings. Plenty of vendors to dine and entertain.

Beautiful beach to walk all the way through, got the opportunity to see the sunset here and it was stunning. They have exercise stations and a beach gym to get a nice workout

Probably the most beautiful beach in Rio, much better than Copacabana due to the view. There are vendors and people who rent umbrellas and such, but they were never too pushy like some people say. Overall a very chill vibe. I recommend buying the street corner as a snack, it’s very good!

Amazing beach, but NEVER buy anything from the walking sellers. I paied 1000$ for one caipirinha😢 They hacked the paymemt terminal , even applepay doesn’ help. So be careful

Ipanema Beach is absolutely stunning! The golden sand, turquoise waters, and breathtaking view of the Dois Irmãos mountains make it one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. The atmosphere is lively, with beach vendors, music, and people playing footvolley. The sunset here is unforgettable! It's a great spot to relax, but also perfect if you're looking for a more social beach experience. Just be mindful of your belongings, as petty theft can be an issue. Overall, a must-visit when in Rio! 🌊☀️🏖️

The beach itself is lovely but the beach vendor paraiso tropical 96 ruined the day. If you go to the beach avoid Paraiso Tropical 96!!!!!!Completely over charged us. €141 (850 Brazil Real) for two chairs, an umbrella and two waters.

Visiting Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro is one of those magical experiences that touch your heart. The moment you see the statue standing high above the city, surrounded by clouds and sunlight, it feels truly special. The view from the top of Corcovado is breathtaking the ocean, the mountains, and the city below all blend into one stunning panorama. There’s something peaceful and spiritual about being up there. Even with many visitors around, you can still feel a deep sense of calm and awe. The train ride through the lush forest adds to the experience, making the journey as beautiful as the destination. It’s a place that makes you feel grateful, inspired, and connected to nature, to faith, and to life itself. An absolute must-visit when in Rio.

Christ the Redeemer (Cristo Redentor) is an iconic statue of Jesus Christ located atop Mount Corcovado in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This colossal Art Deco statue stands 98 feet tall, with arms outstretched spanning 92 feet, making it one of the largest statues of Jesus in the world and a symbol both of Rio and Brazil.The idea for the statue was first proposed in the 1850s but was only realized starting in 1922, with construction completed in 1931. Brazilian engineer Heitor da Silva Costa designed the statue, with sculptor Paul Landowski creating the statue’s detailed features. The statue is constructed of reinforced concrete and clad in durable soapstone, chosen for its ability to withstand the elements.Christ the Redeemer was built by the Catholic Church and local supporters to symbolize peace and welcome, standing prominently on Corcovado Mountain so it is visible from across Rio. Over the years, it has become a global cultural landmark and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. The site includes panoramic views of Rio’s cityscape, beaches, and surrounding mountains. It also has facilities such as an elevator and motorized stairs for accessibility.Visitors appreciate not only the religious and cultural significance of the statue but also the stunning views and the impressive engineering feat behind its design and preservation. It represents a unifying symbol with spiritual, historical, and architectural importance in Brazil.Christ the Redeemer continues to undergo maintenance and preservation efforts to protect its structure, ensuring it can be enjoyed by generations to come

A fullfilment of one of my traveling dreams was to visit the statue and admire the views over the city. Might be crowded from time to time but with some spare time you'll get to experience everything easily with one visit. Pre-purchased tickets recommended and can be changed for instance due to weather conditions.

It’s unthinkable to visit Rio without getting up close to this iconic statue. Access via the inclined tramway, a few steps and an escalator is easy. It was very misty when I visited and so not too crowded. Thankfully the mist lifted enough to see this beautiful statue, although views of the city remained really limited. The little chapel built into the rear of the statue was a pleasant surprise. I can’t begin to imagine how crowded it must get on a clear day, but you must visit.

There’s literally nothing to say about this attraction other than wow. The feeling you get seeing something in person after seeing it so many times on TV is amazing. I’m surprised how organised they are. They have lift an escalators on top of the mountain. They are plenty of shops and food court. They do daily shows like Samba dancing.

It's worth it. Visiting what's Rio famous for. You can see Rio from the top. The journey to the top was amazing, great views and weather. It's bigger than I thought. Sometimes it's crowded and sometimes you can take photos or ask someone to take it for you. Beautiful memories. Go early and book online there is a website for the train and tickets flr the Redeemer on site. When you arrive There will be a short line and a gift store.

You can't visit Rio without visiting Christo. It's way up in the national park but visits are well organised and comfortable to all, including those with mobility issues! And the views are spectacular too!

Famous beach, chill and safe. Can walk

Arpoador Beach is beautiful! 🌅 A perfect spot to enjoy the view and relax.

Loved this beach so much, great for surfers too, it’s big and friendly, if you come to Rio you definitely should visit it❤️

Fantastic views, location, and service! The room was good size, modern, clean, and our balcony had a hammock which I enjoyed. Breakfast was included and amazing every day. The front desk staff was super helpful and spoke English. I would stay there again in a heartbeat!

A beautiful place to take photos and videos and to chill in the sun. You can also find a lot of activities like an improvised beach gym, surfing, table tennis and others

Go up the rocks and enjoy another great view of Rio. You can see the beaches of Arpoador, Ipanema and Leblon on your right and maybe you can get a quick view of the Christ statue if you look behind the buildings. If you are there, just wait until the sunset, and enjoy the view.

Absolutely love this place. Go here often during my 3-month stay.

The beach is beautiful. It was a bit wavy given I visited in the end of September and the water was a bit cold but it was really enjoyable and refreshing on hot days. There are many retailers that occasionally can try hard to sell whatever they have. It should also be known that this is not the safest place to be. One has to be very careful with his belongings and where to sit to avoid

Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro is everything you imagine it to be — and more! The moment you step onto the soft golden sand, you can feel the vibrant energy that makes this beach world-famous. The stunning curve of the coastline, framed by lush green hills and the rhythmic sound of the Atlantic waves, creates a picture-perfect scene that feels straight out of a postcard. What makes Copacabana so special is the unique blend of relaxation and excitement. In the mornings, it’s peaceful and ideal for a refreshing swim or a quiet walk along the promenade. As the day goes on, the beach comes alive with locals playing volleyball and football, vendors selling refreshing coconut water, and musicians adding a joyful samba rhythm to the air. The iconic black-and-white wave-patterned boardwalk is another highlight — perfect for strolling, cycling, or simply soaking in the view of the sea and city skyline. There are plenty of beachfront cafés and kiosks where you can enjoy delicious Brazilian snacks and fresh juices while watching the sunset paint the sky in shades of orange and pink. Copacabana Beach isn’t just a place — it’s an experience of Rio’s soul: warm, lively, and unforgettable. Whether you go to relax, meet people, or simply admire the breathtaking scenery, it’s a destination that leaves a lasting impression. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Rio — Copacabana is pure magic. 🇧🇷✨

Sept.25: We went to the famous Copacabana Beach. We taught it would be crowded as it was weekend, however this wasn't the case. There were a lot of local vendors selling all kinds of stuff & many different food, icecreams & drinks. Some brought a complete umbrella with bikinis & thongs as well as really nice looking grilled big scampis (we didn't try as we didn't know how long they were exposed to sun, etc.) & many more. As we need to get the Copacabana beach vipe, we bought a 700ML freshly pressed lime caipirinha. Delicious, but with the sun & almost on an empty stomach; I got hit very fast. In the far we saw Christ the Redeemer (big, famous Jezus statue of 30 m height on a hill), we hope to visit one of these days.

Here's a good review of Copacabana beach: Copacabana is more than just a beach; it's the vibrant, beating heart of Rio de Janeiro. The moment you step onto its famous wave-patterned promenade, you feel an electric energy. The 4km stretch of sand is a democratic playground for everyone—you'll see intense games of footvolley, locals sunbathing, and tourists sipping água de coco from the countless kiosks. The view is spectacular, with the curving bay framed by Sugarloaf Mountain on one end. It’s a must-see for its sheer iconic status and incredible people-watching, capturing the city's lively spirit perfectly.

One of the famous beaches in the world was worth visiting. A fairly clean that has many things to offer - from food stalls to watching people play volleyball, soccer and other games, enjoying a nice drink, snacks and food. A good place to get your morning or afternoon walk/run as well. A safe place compared to some parts of Rio. From good to excellent hotels across the beach.

Loved this beach, it is great for long walks, it’s clean enough, it’s possible to see a beautiful sunset there. Really liked the fact that it was possible to pay by card for sunbeds, umbrellas and drinks. It’s often very busy there and I loved that vibe.

🔟 / 🔟 Hello, we were here. I have to say right from the start, this is one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever been, simply paradise. I really, really enjoyed my time here. There are a lot of interesting people here. Feel free to come here with your friends, family, partners or alone. Enjoy this paradise. We'd love to come back. See you next time. ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻

It could really be pack after 10am. So, if you’d like a nice photo, do go early! We had to go back a 2nd time to get nice photo taken without people everywhere!

The stairs themselves are stunning but the sheer number of people trying to pose on them makes it overwhelming and takes away from the art. Go early or in the rain for the best chance at a decent view. The street leading up to the steps is full of souvenir stalls that are actually pretty well priced compared to the same stuff at Christ the Redeemer or Ipanema.

I came here twice, solely because it was so ridiculously busy the first time I thought it deserved a second go. The first was on a Saturday around 12. It was so insanely busy you could barely move let alone get any sort of pictures or enjoyment. The second was on a Monday around 10:30 it was still very busy but far less people. You could walk without getting in the way of to many people's photos and find a spot to take your own. Well the stairs are very beautiful, and it is completely free. I wouldn't say it is an absolute must see. If it's a stop on your tour, or nearby where you're staying I think go for it. But I wouldn't go out of my way to see it.

Such an amazing vibe with beautiful artwork on the steps. It can be a bit crowded, but it is so worth the trip. Grab a caprihana and stroll on up the steps. Great little shops at the bottom to check out too.

Easy to miss if you're going from up top. The stair view can be enjoyed from tje bottom only. They're located on a 5-10 minute walk from the cathedral and are definitely worth a visit.

Sept.25: would have gotten 5 stars if it wasn't so overcrowded. We unfortunately visited on Sunday afternoon, lots of tourists which all took their time to get pictures... It was even hard only to enter the stairs just to go up.

This place is an iconic one. I went there late in the afternoon and was packed! Still, flocks of people would come and go leaving good time to take pictures. However, the best moment to be there is very very early in the morning like 6.30am, sun rises around 6-6.18am so it'll be well lit and everything, and most importantly, empty! You don't need to buy a ticket to enter this place since it's open for everyone. Just be careful of your belongings as always, pay attention to your surroundings and you'd be just fine! If you have enough time it's really amazing to really pay attention to the different ceramic tiles, also, be careful on where you step, after all it's ceramic so it can be slippery or tricky at times.

Very good attraction. It gets really busy so be prepared to be pushing and shoving. Everybody is trying to get the best spot to record the videos. They do have nice foods and souvenir shop on top of the mountain. There is always entertainment going on like live music.

Sugarloaf in Rio offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city, beaches, and mountains, absolutely worth the visit. The cable car ride is smooth and scenic. It can get very crowded, especially during peak hours, so try to go early or on a weekday. There are a few shops and places to grab a snack at the top, but prices are a bit high. Still, the overall experience is unforgettable and a must-do while in Rio!

We came here early to avoid the long line. A glass cable car carried us to the top of iconic Sugar Loaf Mountain, actually expect to ride second cable car to real mountain top, which is a symbol of the city, in ideal conditions, I supposed to see the stunning panorama of the beaches, Corcovado Mountain, downtown Rio, and Guanabara Bay, etc. actually what you can see is by chance, the mist of cloud always come across to make you wonder, and it's hard to take a good picture of the stunning panoramic view of bay. There are squirrel-like primates called marmosets which can be spotted near the cable car stations and trails on the mountain , a species native to eastern Brazil. The tourists are discouraged to feed them.

A world class experience. Preferable to book the cable car tickets in advance to avoid disappointment. There are queues to board and alight from the cable cars. The 2 levels of the cable car stations provide varied views of the city of Rio from the top. The vistas are breathtaking. It can get a little cold at the top, so dress accordingly. The Christ Redeemer statue can be seen from the top. There a few expensive stores and good cafés at the top. Toilet and drinking water facilities are good. Best time to visit is around the sunset time to get the night views of the city.

Beautiful! It’s a stop you cannot miss in Rio. I loved it!

A definite must do while you are here. The views are great and there’s heaps of little shops and restaurants on top. The history of the build is also really interesting

A must place to visit if visiting Rio. Usual problems of crowds. Really busy mid morning with cruise ship tours etc. Go early or later also mid day was quiet

Didn't know this story, but it was the highlight of the whole "Petropolis" tour for me, being that I love aviation.

No pix, no amex. cash, debit or credit only. Great history spot, small (but he was a small guy) great piece of history! Worth the trio!

Nice place, can see why he built a glider to get to the bottom of the mountain. He was a bit later to fly, just after the Wright Brothers.

I went on his birthday and it was very busy, however it was great to learn more about the type of person he was and his lovely house.

Very informative and interesting small museum, one of the best places in Petropolis.

The House of Santos Dumont is a great place to visit. I got surprised when I saw how simple he lived behind the big intelligence he had. The history of this great person brings pride of such human and the benefits he brought to the humandade.

Beautiful site with a rich history and gorgeous scale replicas of Santos' creations, and the original house designed by Santos Dumont himself. The entrance fee is decent, and they offer a video (with English subtitles) that tells the true story of Mr. Dumont. This is a must-visit site for fans of aviation history. Keep in mind the stairs are steep (which is part of the original history of the house), but there is an elevator available for people who have difficulty.

I had an amazing experience at Restaurante Cervejaria Bohemia in Petrópolis. The setting is beautiful — inside the historic Bohemia brewery — and the ambiance is lively yet cozy. The food was outstanding! I had the Angus flat iron steak, perfectly cooked and beautifully plated. Everything is clearly designed to pair with their incredible craft beers, which are brewed right there on-site. The staff was attentive and friendly, and the view from the upstairs restaurant added a special touch. After lunch, I visited the brewery museum — which I highly recommend if you’re into beer culture or Brazilian history.

Nice place, especially beer tasting, gift shop is also interesting😀

Brazil's oldest brewery was founded by German immigrants in the mountainous summer getaway of Petrópolis in 1853. It was once the preferred beer of the Portuguese royal family. While mass production shifted to São Paulo in 1998, Bohemia reopened its original location in 2012 as a specialty brewery museum, bar, and restaurant. The interactive guided tour explores the history of beer and specifically Bohemia, offering tastings and a visit to the barrel-aging beer cave.

Esther was an excellent guide! She gave thoughtful, funny and kind insights of the beer process and its history. She also always made sure we had no questions left. Amazing work!

Deep history:) fun tastings of the beer!

Absolutely 5 stars. The venue is very well mainland the 44 real tour was amazing. They did a great job explaining beer making process and so many fun facts.

This was one of the best parts of my visit in Petropolis. The first half of the tour is a museum of the history and science of beer. The displays are in Portuguese, but almost all of them have English translations. The displays were beautiful and informative. The last half is a guided tour. Our guide spoke in Portuguese, which was difficult for me. However, most of the displays were straightforward enough and interesting enough that I wasn't bored and didn't feel left out. After the guided tour, we were given a flight of 3 different beers to taste (and children were given juice so they didn't feel left out). The gift shop had many great gifts for me to bring back home. The restaurant had great vegetarian options (and of course, beer), and the service was excellent. I highly recommend you do this tour!

What a fabulous structure, amazing how the first two meters of the structure is cut stone while the remainder is built with concrete to represent the people. It is in an idealistic location overlooking the river, and is very well maintained. One thing to be aware of is shorts are not the preferred clothing item. An ideal location for reflection and some quiet time.

History buffs must stop here! Pro: - king and queen grave - gorgeous architecture - incredible carvings - well maintained - free Con: - nothing

Great architecture experience. Historic place that took place under the Pedro II dinasty.

Beautiful church ⛪️ with amazing stained glass with the best detailed designs! Free to visit

Cathedral in Petropolis. After their exile to and death in Europe, the remains of the last Brazilian emperor Pedro II and his wife were laid to rest here in marble tombs. His surviving daughter and her French husband are also entombed here. Of interest to those interested in 19th century imperial history of Brazil.

Beautiful Cathedral, its history is worth the visit!

Calm and quiet place. Nice church, no cost.

Access is free on Wednesdays and is a self tour across the palace. It takes about 1hr if you pay attention to the details. Worth visiting in Petrópolis.

It is a cultural visit to understand how was the daily basics of the emperor and he's wife and way to do so.

If you were a bad student as me, this is the opportunity to know the history of Brazil. We have just 63 years of kingdom here in Brazil but until our "freedom" or beginning of the democrat republicans there are very interesting issues inside the museum.

Beautiful palace. Mostly everything written in portuguese You can pay CASH ONLY! The slippers that they give you to put on your shoes are very dangerous and disgusting dirty. Could search for another option for visitors! No photos allowed.

Great palace. Free entrance when we went. We had to wear covers for our shoes. Great collection.

You're required to wear slippers over your shoes to protect the floors, but unfortunately they are one size fits some and you'll likely be pseudo-skating around the museum. Also, you're required to check all belongings before entering, including cameras. Photography is not allowed inside, with or without flash. Other than these minor things, worth the trip! Definitely recommend, just be aware what you're in for.

Quite interesting to see how decadent the royal family was while their countries (Brazil and Portugal) suffered. The museum is free sometimes and cheap the rest of the time. It would get 5 stars if they allowed photos inside and dispensed with the awkward slippers they furnish you to preserve the hardwood floors.

This is a beautiful island to visit. A very peaceful area to go if you need some peace from Rio. You can walk or take a bike around the island.

I went to Paquetá in the middle of November. The weather was breezy and the air was fresh. It was completely quiet and calm, perfect for a weekend.

Beautiful and safe little island 🤩 Easy to visit there by ferry. Ferry price is very reasonable and the trip by ferry is very comfortable. The Island itself is very small but worth visiting. Peaceful, easy to walk around. When it's sunny, sunset and sunrise are very beautiful, and can be very romantic.

The ferry is a fun trip and it's a nice day trip from Rio, but as the beaches aren't good for swimming and there aren't great restaurants it's pretty quiet. There's not a lot to do, we walked around the southern part of the island and it's pretty but not necessarily worth the effort if you're short on time. We took the 9am ferry and were ready to leave by noon but took the 2:30 return. There is a pretty good ice cream place right by the terminal.

small island only bikes no cars quite couple of Restaurants

The hidden treasure of Rio de Janeiro. A butterfly shaped island in Guanabara Bay, so enchanting, so peaceful, no cars allowed, only service vehicles, like ambulance, firetruck, lighting company, garbage. Full of all types birds, monkeys in the trees and dogs sleeping in the streets. Brazil's version of Romeo and Juliet is set here in the novel, A Moreninha. Portrayed on film decades ago by Sonia Braga

Good place to ride a bike - round trip around the small island

One of the most amazing National Parks in Brazil. Petrópolis - Teresópolis trail is a must. Among other attractions are "Dedo de Deus", waterfalls and breathtaking viewpoints.

This is a super beautiful park area that I visited in Teresopolis. I really enjoyed the fun of walking across all the rocks and sitting under the several waterfalls. This was during January and the weather was just perfect. I hope to visit the beautiful place again.

Beautiful region, with amazing scenarios and astonishing wildlife

good roads, short distances, nice views

I hiked from Petropolis to Teresopolis and it was one of the most technically difficult hikes I've done. There is this one part called the "little horse" where the only way to continue is to take your backpack off, grab the rock, swing your leg over the rock, and use your momentum to hoist your body on and over this large rock. Did I mention that this all takes place on cliff where if you fall you die? Yep! It was worth it and so incredibly beautiful but the trail is no joke! Doable if you do it in 2-3 days (carrying your camping gear) but a lot of altitude! I have hiked 36km/day in the snow, and found this hike to be a challenge physically and mentally.

Beautiful park, with a fun little road that goes a few km into the jungle. The view at the end of the Cartão Postal trail is worth the hike, but be warned that it's not easy. Don't attempt it if you're not in shape.

I really enjoyed the park. It has many waterfalls with small natural pools. Accessible, requires a short hiking of 5-10 minutes to get to most of the natural pools. Very relaxing and calm.

Breathtaking!!!!! Outstanding!!!!

Fenomenal place

Great view

A beautiful little church up on a hill and the surrounding area and beaches are really pretty. You can get some fun photos-fishing boats on the sea, a cemetery, people on beaches on both sides, and then of course they church itself which was closed when we were there.

Picturesque little church on the top of the cliffs. Nice views around.

An ancient, historic church. A tranquil respite and perfect counterpoint after a couple of days ofsoaking up the sun on the beaches.

I took this pictures at the top...

Saquarema is amazing. It is called the capital of the surf.big waves, sun shine all of the year, handsome people.unforgetable experience.

Beautiful and blessed place

Blessed place.

Nice beach, pretty quiet when we went. The waves were wild though so bathe with care.

Fabulous golden sand but no place to swim..the waves are for confident surfers! Great to watch them!

O point!
