Hoogtepunten

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.

It was designed between 1935 and 1936, by a team of young architects, such as Lucio Costa and Affonso Eduardo Reidy. Oscar Niemeyer, who became Brazil's best-known architect later, was an intern in Costa's office by then.

About Rio de Janeiro

Rio de Janeiro ligt tussen bergen en oceaan, een stad van beroemde stranden, granieten pieken, sambaritmes en een wereldberoemd carnaval.

Christus de Verlosser staat met open armen boven op de Corcovado en kijkt neer op de stad, en kabelbanen klimmen naar de Suikerbroodberg voor uitzicht over de Guanabarabaai. Beneden zijn de stranden van Copacabana en Ipanema het toneel van het dagelijks leven, met volleybal, kiosken en de promenade met golfpatroon, terwijl Leblon en Arpoador de strook verlengen.

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