LAPA NEIGHBORHOOD
Santa Teresa is one of the most charming neighborhoods in Rio. The bucolic atmosphere, its old buildings, and the traditional yellow cable car turn the neighborhood into one must-see place. Moreover, Santa Teresa is also famous for its gastronomy diversities. There are many bars, restaurants, and cafes, each with its particular style. At Santa Teresa, you can find haute cuisine, German food, a carioca typical bar, besides, the popular Brazilian northeastern food. Therefore, Santa Teresa is an eclectic place. It is a true paradise for those who like to eat well and discover new flavors. However, on our walking tour, we focused on simple, traditional bars and restaurants that represent Rio's street life soul. After Santa Teresa, we go down the hill to explore the other bohemian stronghold of Rio - The Lapa neighborhood! At Lapa, besides, browsing around, we will visit nice places to hear and enjoy Samba music.
