Santa Teresa
It is a neighbourhood located on top of the Santa Teresa hill, by the centre of Rio, and is famous for its winding, narrow
streets which are a favourite spot for artists and tourists.
The neighbourhood originated around the Santa Teresa Convent, built in the 1750s on the Desterro hill. At the end of the
19th and early 20th century it was an upper class borough, as testified by its magnificent mansions, many of which are
still standing.
In 1896, the Carioca Aqueduct, a colonial structure that used to bring water to the centre of Rio, was converted into a
bridge for the Santa Teresa tram (bondinho). The old tram is still in use today - the only one in Rio - and is a popular
attraction among tourists. The ride starts in the city centre, near the Largo da Carioca square, crosses the old aqueduct
and goes through the picturesque streets of the neighbourhood. Wonderful views of the city downhill can be appreciated.

Centro Cultural Laurinda Santos Lobo (Laurinda Santos
Lobo Cultural Center)
The most beautiful postcards of the city has on its site a four-storey house
which remained the columns and some walls. Former residence of
Laurinda Santos Lobo, one of the most important patrons of Rio, the place
was the scene of popular music and poetry evenings between years 20 and
40. After the death of owner, in 1946, the house was closed for decades
and has been completely looted. First objects were brought
from the interior . When nothing else had , windows , doors ,
tiles and exterior ornaments were also stolen and turned house ruin.
In the 90s the city became the place near the Largo do Curvelo in a
cultural center with one of the most beautiful viewpoints of the River
Largo do Curvelo
The tram arrives at the Rua Almirante Alexandrina, the oldest in the
neighborhood. It is the House Ship, inspired on the deck of a vessel, pure
architectural daring. And that's the same street that has a breathtaking
view of Valentine's Castle, a fortress erected in neo-romantic style. Built
in the late 19th century, was the residence of Commander Anthony
Valentine, designed by his son. Today the building serves as an apartment
building. That way, a belvedere a beautiful landscape of Guanabara Bay.
Largo dos Guimarães
The tram goes into the heart of the neighborhood. At Largo dos
Guimarães concentrate the most exciting restaurants and bars offering
cold beer and great snacks. Among them, Bar do Mineiro, Bar Arnaudo
(food Northeastern), Supernatural (seafood) and Adega do Pimenta
(German). When night falls, the agitation takes place. Following the
tracks of the tram takes you to Largo das Neves, where there is a beautiful
hamlet of 1850 and the Church of Nossa Senhora das Neves, 1860, plus a
series of bars too crowded. The location is the end point of driving and
