This month, we’re loving Local Guide Juan Ignacio Sepúlveda’s review of Parque Lage in Rio De Janeiro, a public park with lush greenery and diverse wildlife, which also attracts attention with the amazing architecture of the mansion inside it.
In his review, Juan says: “A spectacular place. Keep in mind that you do not have to pay an entrance fee to visit this beautiful place. If you arrive early, you will not have to stand in long queues, since the mansion is in high demand. It is a special place to take incredible photos, with a clear view of Christ the Redeemer. To access the second floor [of the mansion], you have to buy one of the handicrafts that they offer. [...] There are a lot of green areas to explore, including an aquarium, and you can also see animals from up close swinging around the park.”
What we like about Juan’s review is that he gives advice on when to visit the park and the mansion to avoid crowds and capture some magnificent photos of the famous Christ the Redeemer. Although the entrance is free, he makes a point to say that a purchase is necessary to go to the second floor of the building. Juan didn’t miss to mention the other treasures of the park, like the green spaces, the aquarium, and the wild animals you can have a close encounter with.
