Its only 4 houses. The interior is all closed to the public. It's tiny. It's a small cul de sac. I enjoyed the walk in the area, stunning spot for fotos.

This is a nice old square with old Rio/Portuguese architecture. If you appreciate history and architecture, you will enjoy this. It is worth visiting if you have a 20-30 minute wait for the train at Corcovado. There are large trees providing shade as well.

Its a beautiful squared of old posh houses of Rio. If you like viewing what men built being consume by the jungle its a must. Even the ugliest monster has its beauty and that's what happen here. It will just take you 10 minutes and the good thing is that is not overcrowded.

Beautiful, but abandoned. Since they are renovating the houses, you cannot enter anymore.

Place is decayed, without any information displayed. I remember just a few years ago it was a very different story... Sad to see how the city's administration is incapable of reversing such situation.

This square during its golden era belonged to important Brazilian people and foreigners that wanted to live close to all social events and festivities Rio always offered. It's one of few places that you can still see the Carioca River bordering the square. Its colorful neocolonial buildings still attracts visitors from all around but unfortunately it's decaying fast. Still a nice place to visit specially since it's so close to the train station to Christ the Redeemer. If you're in Rio, I'm a local guide here.
