A Hidden Palace in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil - Parque Lage Guide
Parque Lage in Rio, a mini palace hidden in the tropical rainforest, is quite dreamy🌿🏛️ ✨ Attraction Introduction Parque Lage was originally a private estate in the 19th century. Later, it was designed by Italian architects, blending European neoclassicism with Brazilian local style. The elegant palace building is surrounded by lush towering trees and tropical vegetation. When you look up, the Christ the Redeemer statue adds to the whole atmosphere. It's really a great photo spot🎨📷 ✨ Architectural Features The biggest highlight of the palace is the atrium pool. The blue pool with retro arches and Roman columns makes it easy to take vintage-style photos! In terms of architectural details, you can see a lot of Baroque-style sculptures and exquisite stone carvings, each full of artistic charm🗿. ✨ Visitor Tips ⚠️ Peak Season Tips: If you want to come here for photos, it's better to come early! During peak hours, you have to wait at least an hour to enter, especially on weekends and holidays. (Trust me) 🍽 Restaurant Booking Trick: It's recommended to book Plage Café in the palace in advance. You can have brunch while enjoying the beautiful scenery here, and also elegantly avoid the queue to take better empty photos! 🍈 A Note on Jackfruit: There are many jackfruit trees full of fruits in the park, but locals don't seem to pick them much. Could it be that Brazilians don't like them? No wonder I didn't see jackfruit in the supermarket. Everyone should be careful here, especially when walking under the trees. After all, if a ripe jackfruit falls, your Brazil trip will end early😱. In general, Parque Lage has beautiful architecture, a great atmosphere, and a 100% photo success rate! Those who like checking in and taking photos can give it a try. 📍 Address: Parque Lage, Rio de Janeiro 🕰 Opening Hours: 08:00-17:00 (it's recommended to come in the morning) #Brazil#travel#DiscoverHiddenCheckInSpots
