Brazil’s Southern Green Metropolis
Surrounded by 40 hills, the Guaíba Lake, and a unique ecosystem, Porto Alegre is the capital and largest city of the southern Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul. Founded in 1772 by settlers from the Azores Islands, it had a huge influx of European immigrants, mainly from Germany and Italy. It holds Brazil’s highest life quality and literacy rates.
Don’t miss the "Cidade Baixa" Old Town, composed of colorful historical buildings. Moinhos de Vento is one of the richest neighborhoods, with trendy bars and restaurants. Some of the best hotels in Porto Alegre are located in these areas.
The Usina do Gasômetro Cultural Center is a refurbished power plant dating back to 1928, featuring an art center and movie theaters. The central Farroupilha Park is the perfect place to relax on a warm afternoon. Many hotels in Porto Alegre are near this green space.
The Azoreans Monument is a 55-foot tall memorial dedicated to Porto Alegre’s pioneers. It's located close to the modernist Rio Grande do Sul state administration building complex.

Interessante como as ruas de Porto Alegre me lembram as ruas da zona sul do Rio. Em algubs momentos cheguei a pensar que estava andando no RJ. Pouco transito. Temperatura quente mas supurtável. Comida muito boa.

There is nothing to do in Porto Alegre!
There is nothing to do in Porto Alegre!!, I have been in a lot of cities, and by far this is the most tedious city I have visited!!, don't go there for vacations, the only thing to do there is to eat meat, which is delicious.

Ficamos na região de Moinhos. Parte muito agradável. Vários jardins e parques lindos.
A estadia durou apenas o final de semana, mas fizemos o bus tour pela cidade e deu para conhecer alguns cartões postais.

We stayed at Porto Alegre for 3 nights because we were flying from that area over to Chile and we thought a few days there would be nice. Actually we feel we would have been better off staying the days in either Sao Paulo or Buenos Aires instead of Porto Alegre. Once we changed hotels to a nicer residential area we felt better about the place but really, there wasn't much to do or see. The street scenes had interesting architecture and the historic market was good to see, really good coffee.

Porto Alegre is not a huge city by Latin American standards.
Porto Alegre is not a huge city by Latin American standards. However, you can find a variety of international cuisine...there is of course, Brazilian food, however, you can also find Mexican food, Japanese food, Indian food just to name a few. The supermarkets, especially "Zaffari" has many imported products as well. There are many parks e.g. the Botanical Gardens and Redenção that are interesting to visit. Unfortunately, at the time that we visited, the local government had voted to close the Botanical Garden which is very sad. Hopefully, those protesting the closure will be able to convince their government officials to reconsider this decision. If I had to choose a city to live in Brazil, I'd consider living in Porto Alegre.
“The arrival at the hotel was spectacular. We were offered coffee or hot chocolate and a balloon for our daughter. The bed was huge. The attention Paulo gave was amazing.”
“I like the service and the worker is good too but the hotel need some one talking english good otherwise i feel good with this hotel and i hope the seccesful thank you so much”
