Petropolis

It was utilized as the Royal Family's summer vacation since it is located up the hills from Rio, making it much cooler than the then metropolis during the hotter months. Because Petropolis is located in the heart of the Atlantic Forest, the roads there provide some of the most beautiful views of the valley's green sea of trees. You may simply make a day trip or spend a couple of days in Rio de Janeiro because of its proximity.

There are some of the main attractions in Petropolis. The first is The Imperial Palace, which has most of the original furnishings in the same condition as when the family left it, including the floor, which requires cloth slippers to avoid scratching. Princess Isabel was awarded the Crystal Palace for her 15th birthday in 1884, to use as her personal greenhouse. Since then, it has held parties and conferences, and it is now one of Petropolis' tourist attractions. Bavaria Brewery is another option. If you enjoy beer, you may visit the Bavaria brewery and museum, which produces one of Brazil's most recognized beers. Finally, the Quitandinha Hotel, which was established in 1944 to be South America's largest casino, is now utilized for weddings, conferences, and as a honeymoon hotel.
