You'll find yourself surrounded by wonderful things to do and see, including the Museum of Modern Art and the Niterói Contemporary Art Museum. If you're eager to make the most of your stay, also devote some time to Catedral de Sao Sebastiao do Rio de Janeiro and Parque Henrique Lage.

Whether they're built from steel, brick or wood, bridges are some of the world's most well-known architectural wonders. Appreciate the design of Arcos da Lapa and learn a little more about its rich and compelling history. There's an excellent range of things to keep you busy in this destination. Wet afternoons are a brilliant opportunity to lose yourself in a book in quiet surrounds. If it looks like it's going to pour down, why not nip over to National Library and check out the latest fiction? Still have time on your hands? The intimacy and accomplishment of theater has to be experienced. Book your tickets for a show at Municipal Theater and experience the magic for yourself!
