Destacados

Enjoy a half-day tour through the architectural landmarks in Rio. Rio de Janeiro was recently named the first World Capital of Architecture by UNESCO. The city has constructions of the colonial period, buildings in the art-deco style and modernist buildings. Our walking tour starts from the Carioca’s Square in the Downtown area, where we see a group of constructions of the XVII century: the Church and the Convent of St. Anthony. Then we proceed towards the Rio Branco Avenue, the first avenue to be opened in our city. Then, we go to the Cinelandia Square to see its Art Deco Constructions before we make another time jump towards the modernist architecture. The tour ends at the Museum of Modern Art.

About Río de Janeiro

Río de Janeiro se despliega entre montañas y océano: playas famosas, picos de granito, ritmos de samba y un carnaval conocido en todo el mundo.

El Cristo Redentor se alza con los brazos abiertos en lo alto del Corcovado, mirando la ciudad desde arriba, y los teleféricos suben al Pan de Azúcar para ofrecer vistas sobre la bahía de Guanabara. Abajo, las playas de Copacabana e Ipanema son el escenario de la vida diaria, con voleibol, quioscos y el paseo de dibujo ondulado, mientras Leblon y Arpoador prolongan la franja.

Top-ranked sights in Río de Janeiro: Christ the Redeemer Statue (Cristo Redentor), Sugarloaf Mountain (Pao de Açúcar), Selarón Steps (Escadaria Selarón).
