Then go on Avenida Pasteur, paying tribute to the French scientist, you will be a few meters away from the big shopping mall Rio Sul just before arriving at the Pão de Açúcar, where you can rise aboard a cable railway and resting by admiring the view giving onto the city.

You have many options, for example, starting by the famous and so desired Praia of Copacabana where you can bask on the beach and sunbathe, you will have access to another district very appreciated by the South of Rio, that of Ipanema, who also possesses a magnificent beach, less crowded than that of Copacabana for those who would look for more peace but by staying in the city, near the storekeepers and the multiple restaurants.

By taking the avenue Borges de Medeiros, you will have for final destination the magnificent Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas, immense pond situated very close to the botanical garden of Rio.
