Brasilia was conceived as a city of the future. Read about our impressions of Brazil’s capital and Oscar Niemeyer’s inspiring architecture in the present!
Good advice from a chance meeting led us to Inhotim with its fusion of botanical garden and contemporary art. So beautiful, so unexpected, so amazing.
Classic Volkswagen vehicles are extremely popular in Brazil. Many are still used as every-day-cars, others are nicely restored vintage collectors’ items.
We left Teresópolis with 100s of colourful photos from their annual classic car meeting. We saw many old, often unknown, vehicles typical of Brazil.
Are you planning to visit Rio de Janeiro? We recommend you allow some time to go and see the Oscar Niemeyer architecture (and more) in Niterói!
We had heard about Paraty (or Parati) but we didn’t read much in advance. It turned out to be a pretty colonial gem and a real photographer’s paradise.
