PETRÓPOLIS
The Imperial City
Petrópolis is one of the few cities in Brazil that can be considered an open-air museum. Walking down its Avenues is like breathing history. Everywhere, mansions, churches and squares with a still alive past. Along its streets, they also walked quietly while returning to their homes Santos Dumont, Princess Isabel, the Baron of Mauá, Rui Barbosa and the Emperor of Brazil, Dom Pedro II. The imposing Cathedral of São Pedro de Alcântara, in neo-Gothic French style, is featured on several postcards and is the ideal starting point for those who want to explore the exciting Imperial City. Take a deep breath and fill your lungs with the fresh air of Petrópolis!
