It is considered the architectural work of the larger of the colonial period. The imposing building in Roman style has 17.6 meters high, 270 meters long and 42 arches in the Roman style, connecting the neighborhood of Santa Teresa to Santo Antonio Hill. The aqueduct was built in 1723 and was intended to lead water from the Carioca river height Morro do Desterro (current neighborhood of Santa Teresa, for St. Anthony Hill. The work would help solve the old and recurring problem of water shortage in the city. the studies to bring the waters of the Carioca river to the city began in the early years of the seventeenth century, but the installation works of water pipes in Rio de Janeiro started only a century later.

impossible to imagine a trip to Rio de Janeiro without visiting Christ the Redeemer. Located on top of Corcovado's Mount, the monument is the best-known Brazilian image, famous all over the world. Every year, more than six hundred thousand people are taken to Christ the Redeemer's statue through the almost hundred-year-old Corcovado's Railway, the oldest tourist excursion in the country. Apart from being amazed by seeing Marvelous City's most beautiful landscapes, visitors will also take an educational trip throughout Brazil's recent history. Corcovado's Train was inaugurated in 1884 by Brazilian Emperor Dom Pedro II and it has already transported on its cars several distinguished personalities such as popes, kings, princes, presidents, artist and scientists. This is also an eco-tour. The train cuts through the world's largest urban forest: Tijuca's National Park, a part of the so-called Atlantic Forest, considered as an example of nature conservation. And everyone who travels on Corcovado's Railway helps take care of the forest: the train is moved by electricity; therefore, it's not contaminating whatsoever. In addition to that, part of the ticket sale will go to fundraising for Brazilian Institute of the Environment (IBAMA) which is in charge of forest conservation issues.

One of the most picturesque scenery of Rio de Janeiro, Santa Teresa is on top of a hill cut by electric tram tracks , which began to run again for a small neighborhood of the passage in July 2015 (after four years stopped). Full of large spaces and cultural landscapes that reveal the North, South and Central, 'Santa' is taken by houses that are home to workshops, craft shops, bars and restaurants. One of the most important buildings is the Convent of Santa Teresa, built in the 19th century and which gave its name to the neighborhood. Those who choose to get there on foot, starting from Lapa, will have the opportunity to meet the most famous staircase of the city - Selarón with 215 covered steps of ceramic tiles in green, yellow and blue. The ladder was named after the Chilean artist who signs the work.

The Parque Eduardo Guinle, also popularly known as Guinle Park is a public park located in the district of Laranjeiras, in the south of the city of Rio de Janeiro. Set in a small valley at the foot of the hill Nova Cintra in Laranjeiras, it is presented in the form of an amphitheater, against the background of a stream and artificial lakes, surrounded by slopes gently sloping. The first view is the access portal granite that holds the gate in cast iron flanked by two statues of winged lion. The set was completely renovated by the Parks and Gardens Foundation. The visitor finds an area for children with swing and seesaw, and gym equipment (parallel bars and fixed, and abdominal plank). Because it was designed by Lucio Costa and its gardens designed by landscape architect Burle Marx, the Guinle Park has a great resemblance to the superblocks of the Brasilia Pilot Plan.
