Santa Teresa quarter is famous for its winding and narrow streets, its colonial buildings and art deco villas and the BONDINHO (the old tram that connect the city center with Santa Teresa, currently out of use until the 2013) and it’s the favorite quarter of the artists.
ARTE DE PORTAS ABIERTAS, held over a few days in July of each year, when Santa Teresa's artists open their studios to the public
PARQUE DAS RUINAS– a bold architectural project bringing together contemporary materials /as glass and iron) and the ruins of the mansion that belonged to Brazilian heiress Laurinda Santos Lobo. Her house was a meeting point for Rio’s artists and intellectuals for many years until her death in 1946. The real reason to come here is for the excellent view from up top. There’s a small outdoor café and open-air concerts and artistic events are held here
