Botanical Garden of Rio de Janeiro - Part 1

Spending a leisure time at nature is one of my greatest pleasures, is when I can recharge my creativity and energy. Last Sunday, my family and I went to the Botanical Garden of Rio de Janeiro to enjoy that day.

A Day in Petropolis

Liberty Square/ Praça da Liberdade

Thank you for all the support I received from you on my previous post, it absolutely encouraged me to write and post more!

As you already know, I spent my vacation in Petrópolis (The Imperial City), I never get tired of this piece of Europe in Rio de Janeiro. Just so you know, the city has its name in honor to the last Emperor of Brazil, Dom Pedro II whom used to spend his summer times there. Also, you can find the residences of important people around downtown, such as the "The Enchanted" Santos-Dumont's Chalet, the House of Princess Isabel, the House of the Seven Mistakes and much more, besides the germanic touch due to the German immigrants that arrived in 1822.
