I took an Uber to this place and it was very easy to find. It's literally a staircase filled up with lots of different tiles from all over the world and colors. It's beautiful and very colorful. Attention to the hundreds of people trying to take pictures because on Fridays and weekends it's kinda crowded. The best time to visit it is in the afternoon during week days. It'll make a lot easier to take a nice picture. Wearing comfortable shoes is a good idea. If you go up till the top, you can even take the street over the hill and reach the ruins park.

Such a beautiful place and an awesome weather as well! We’re lucky because a pottery event was happening on saturday. Also the place counts with a theatre. The view from Rio is incredible!

Beautiful ballet experience. It was my first time and it was really fun and an amazing experience! Would recommend everyone visiting Rio to go to this place, enjoy the beautiful building and also experience the Ballet!

Impressive venue, brutalist building with unique design. We could not visit it on the inside since it was closed for refurbishment. We could only visit a branch of the building with a temporary exhibition, not impressed by those paintings. It's a must see for architecture and brutalism lovers.

Sugarloaf Mountain (Pão de Açúcar) offers one of the most spectacular views in Rio de Janeiro! The cable car ride to the top is smooth and exciting, revealing stunning panoramas of the city, Copacabana beach, and the Christ the Redeemer statue in the distance. At sunset, the view is absolutely magical. The mountain itself is a natural wonder, perfect for photos and unforgettable memories. Whether you’re a nature lover or sightseeing adventurer, this is a must-visit landmark in Brazil. Highly recommended!

Had lunch there today. The food was great and the service was just as great!

Bar do Mineiro is the perfect stop in Santa Teresa! Everything we order was amazing! We had the Feijoada (delicious!), the porção mista de pastéis, Queijo coalho a milanesa, Frango a passarinha, Feijoada Caldo and Vaca atolada Caldo. Would eat everything again now ;) The service was great, food came out fast and I love the Santa Teresa vibes. We walked from here to Parque das ruínas and to escadaria Selaron. I would recommend ubering as it can be hard finding parking in the area.

Great place for family meal, reasonable price, one of the best places in town to have traditional Brazil food. Beef Ribeye is always excellent, although we ordered it everyday during our stay. By the way, thank you for the free pulled pork sample, it tasted very good!

It's a nice, calm pleasant location in the park. Just like the review below by Javier, I wasn't expecting a lot outside of the atmosphere. But was surprised by the good food .... and nice service. The rice I had with my salmon was very tasty, rich.

By far my favorite shopping mall in Rio de Janeiro. It has an spectacular view to the Botafogo Bay & Marina area and the Sugarloaf Mountains. It's very well organized and safe, with a convenient multiple floors parking system (with automatic machines for payment). There's an app for convenience. There are several restaurants and coffee shops here, including at least 2 big food courts and several smaller areas for dining along the floors. Aside from eating, visitors can expect a cinema, several stores and services in general, of course, including a drugstore and a small co-working space. It's a pet-friendly shopping mall. It's totally worth the visit any day of the week, but specially on weekdays.

Copacabana Beach is iconic! Stunning views, soft sand, and lively atmosphere make it a must-visit. Great for a swim, relaxing, or enjoying local street food. Vendors are friendly, and the vibe is electric, especially at sunset. Safe if you stay aware. An unforgettable Rio experience!

Great Museum with the right balance of Brazilian history and diversity. I visited this place many years ago and it has nothing lost of the fascination and details. Our sons loved it and enjoy the family friendly trip. The Museum is well organized and safe. During the weekend the Center in Rio is empty and it is strongly suggested to arrive by taxi.

This wasn’t on our list of places to visit but we walked up to it since Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Candelaria was already closed when we got here. Surprisingly beautiful inside and a chic place to eat, drink and spend time or meet someone. Their creative ideas are appetizing and irresistible, the place is very clean and you can use the comfort rooms if you need to.

Excellent place for celebrating the New Year’s Eve “Reveillon” in Rio de Janeiro. The location is ideal if you want the right balance between being near of the main stage but in a not very crowded section.

The first Delirio in Town, this is a fantastic place for good fresh sandwiches and salads. Excellent variety and good price, service is efficient but because it is great it gets busy in lunch time, avoid arriving after 12:30! but cues are dealt quickly and you only pay after eating! My tip is try their "rosbife italiano". Their breakfast was also great, I used to have it years ago, never disappointed me!

This is one of my favorite bars in Rio. Not only the drinks are good, but the food is amazing! They also have weekly events.

I used to go to this restaurant in London very often, the quality there was superb. Not too long ago I've been to the on in Ipanema. To my surprise, I found the sauce, one of the trademark of the franchise, very different tasting much more like mustard than the one I was used to. This franchise at shopping da Gávea reproduced the sauce almost in perfection. Congratulations, I felt like was was back in time. The idea of the restaurant is very simple: eat as much fries as you want and a portion of meat ranging from 180 to 220 g. They have a half a liter freshling squeezed juice jar that is a good choice for drinking healthy.

It could be a better place when the lift is working. I've been in Niterói for 1 month, and the full month never has the lift been working! Accessibility ♿️ for all Wheelchair is super bad. users can't use the lift, and there was no other way to get to the second floor to use the ATM machines. I'm very disappointed. Lots of shops and stalls and places to chill on the second floor. Atm in the building

To be honest, we didn’t come for the art - we came for the architecture. As one of Oscar Niemeyer’s most iconic and celebrated creations, this building doesn’t just house the art; it is THE art. In fact, its sweeping curves and bold presence utterly eclipse whatever hangs on the walls inside. Standing before it, in this breathtaking setting, is a five-star experience - no, beyond five stars. The exhibition within? A mere whisper compared to the thunderous poetry of the structure itself. While the price of admission is more than reasonable, the absence of a functioning e-payment system made for a rather unconventional and even bizarre solution. To get the cash to purchase the tickets, I was advised to buy from the coconut vendor on the street, then ask him to charge “extra” on my credit card in return for cash reals. It was such a first world meets third world situation! Every aspect of the MAC is photogenic. The blazing Rio sun and clear skies helped. We lingered for two hours both on the inside and out. And after that we lingered even further with a meal at the delicious Bistrô MAC with its panoramic view of Guanabara Bay. It was an amazing way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

An old fashion nice traditional shopping. You might get fascinated by transiting its halls and feel past times atmosphere. Some shops and restos are jewels to visit. Wish it gets reactivated and back to its good times.

The best fish in Rio de Janeiro...select your fish downstairs, then take it upstairs and have it cooked for you...No regrets with this place.

vampire, yung bruh. hate the sun but i kiss the moon all night

A must-stop when visiting the museum! The Brazilian sweets were delicious, and the staff made us feel very comfortable, especially the Egyptian manager, who was incredibly welcoming and friendly.

Simple ambient and delicious fresh food. Cold beers!

Opening hours 7am-7pm. It's an amazing park. It's a big park with several different divided parts One part is one for animals. One part is pet friendly, with a dog gate, a part with animals, 🪿 🦆🦢 Lots of fishes in the ponds. one part that has big kid ground, and it's a good layout with many entrances to the park Weekend, there is always something going on, and there is always a market on Sundays.

Simple beach with calm and security. Very good if you like walk seeing the starts or drink a delicious coconut water.

A true 5-star experience. The variety of meat offered from the churrasco and the delicious sides offered are so full of taste. This Rodízio has ruined all my experiences with other Rodízios. I absolutely love this restaurant.

This is one of the best supermarkets I've ever been to. They have fresh fruits and vegetables, a pharmacy and a restaurant as well. The food at the restaurant is reasonably priced and if you don't feel like eating at it, there's a bakery right next to it. My favourite choice at the bakery is the Ciabatta with buffalo mozzarella! Most supermarkets could learn from this one.

Fascinating cluster of buildings designed by the legendary Oscar Niemeyer - the largest group outside Brasilia. Wonderful free tours available from the visitor center take you inside the buildings.

Best food all around Rio! Really recommend the Risotto de camarao

(Translated by Google) The place is spacious and well decorated, creating a pleasant atmosphere, located in front of the beach, with indoor and outdoor tables. The service was great. The waiter who served us was very friendly, and he or others were always coming to collect our empty plates. We were surprised at how quickly our orders came out of the kitchen, both for starters and main courses. We ordered the classic ceviche and the fried wontons (a pork and chicken dumpling). Both were very good, the dumpling dough was very crispy, but without that strong fried taste, and the ceviche was both spicy and refreshing, served with a generous portion of chips and corn. For our main course, we ordered the octopus canton and the cruyoc (breaded pork), again both delicious, but the octopus in particular was simply sensational. The pork is accompanied by a sweet tamarind sauce that goes perfectly with the citrus of the pineapple, while the octopus comes with soft rustic potatoes, broccoli and a very good type of mayonnaise. I must admit that the dessert options seemed a bit limited, but the chocolate cake we ordered was very moist and tasty, with a peanut praline that reminded me of peanut brittle. The drinks we ordered (one made with vodka and lychee and the other with white wine and passion fruit) were refreshing. Maybe a little weak in alcohol, but for me that's a bonus. Overall, a great experience. I plan on going back with other people, and I already know that I'll order the octopus. (Original) Ambiente espaçoso e bem decorado, criando uma atmosfera agradável, localizado de frente para a praia, com mesas internas e externas. O serviço foi ótimo. O garçom que nos atendeu foi bem simpático, e a todo momento ele ou outros surgiam para recolher os pratos vazios. Ficamos surpreso com o quão rápido os pedidos saíram da cozinha, tanto as entradas quanto os pratos principais. Pedimos o ceviche clássico e os wontons fritos (um bolinho de porco e frango). Ambos muito bons, a massa do bolinho bem crocante, porém sem aquele gosto forte de fritura, e o ceviche ao mesmo tempo picante e refrescante, servido com uma generosa porção de chips e milho. De prato principal pedimos o polvo cantón e o cruyoc (porco empanado), novamente ambos deliciosos, mas o polvo em específico estava simplesmente sensacional. O porco é acompanhado de um molho adocicado de tamarindo que combina perfeitamente com o cítrico do abacaxi, enquanto o polvo vem com batatas rústicas macias, brócolis e uma espécie de maionese muito boa. As opções de sobremesa confesso que me pareceram um pouco limitadas, mas o bolo de chocolate que pedimos estava bem molhadinho e saboroso, com um praliné de amendoim que lembra pé-de-moleque. Os drinques que pedimos (um à base de vodka e lichia e outro à base de vinho branco e maracujá) eram refrescantes. Talvez um pouco fracos no álcool, mas pra mim isso é um bônus. No todo, uma ótima experiência. Pretendo voltar com outras pessoas, e já sei que pedirei o polvo.

Great place to watch a game. Variety of drinks and apps.

Really great restaurant that offers a huge variety of specialty pizzas (and other dishes). Love the thin crust pizza and a large is plenty to split for two people. Menu was well organized, really creative decor and intimate areas to dine, along with friendly staff. Virginia was a wonderful waitress that was attentive and made many helpful suggestions. Planning to go back before our trip to Niteroi ends!
