Then, we'll be heading to our next destination, but on our way, we'll stop at the Vista Chinesa viewpoint, the Taunay waterfall, the Capela Mayrink and its pink facade, and another viewpoint from which we'll admire a beautiful view of the monolithic Pedra da Gávea and Christ the Redeemer. We'll finally arrive at the Botanical Garden, where we will explore tropical plants it houses -there are over 7000 species in the garden. Also, we'll visit the Frei Landro Lake, the Japanese Garden and the Orchidarium.

Then we're off to Lage Park, located under the Corcovado Mountain. In this beautiful spot, the nature of the Atlantic Forest is mixed with the elegant buildings from the 19th century.
