HOW TO SPEND A DAY IN RIO DE JANEIRO 🇧🇷 📌 SAVE this post for a future trip! Morning: visit the Selaron steps and discover the surrounding area. There are lots of colourful graffiti here and the stairs are a must visit. But make sure to get here as early as you can because the stairs can get very packed with people! Afternoon: visit Jardin Botanico and discover lots of species of plants and vegetation. It is beautiful and you can spend a few hours here! Also take a look at Park Lage where you will find the most beautiful cafe in the whole of Rio 😍 The food here is amazing if you can find a spot to sit! Evening: for sunset head to Pao de Acucar to see the best views of Rio from above. This is also where you can watch the most spectacular sunset in the city!

I visited Escadaria Selarón in the late after and I was amazed by the beauty and creativity of this place. The stairs are decorated with thousands of colorful tiles from different countries, creating a stunning mosaic that reflects the diversity and vibrancy of Brazil. The artist, Jorge Selarón, was a Chilean who dedicated his life to this project as a tribute to the Brazilian people¹. He transformed a simple staircase into a masterpiece of urban art. I was expecting the area to be unsafe, but I was pleasantly surprised by how friendly and welcoming the locals were. The drinks and food on the way to the top were cheaper than downstairs. The only downside was the huge line to take a picture at the stairs with Rio de Janeiro sign, but it was worth the wait. The view from the top was breathtaking and I felt like I was part of a living painting. Escadaria Selarón is a must-see attraction in Rio de Janeiro. It is not just a staircase, but a symbol of passion, culture, and creativity. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves art and wants to experience the true spirit of Rio. If you're interested in watching my YouTube videos, you can find them on my channel @AdiyaAmar.

2023 Nov. I had the best visit here. My pictures speak volumes. I was fortunate enough not to have many people around in this busy tourist spot of town. Great weather and time here. Any island I got to locals, to me are always welcoming. When I visited Escadaria Selarón I was amazed by the beauty and creativity of this place.
