from morro do pasmado, the entire neighborhood of botafogo can also be seen, facing the guanabara bay and sheltered from the atlantic ocean by both sugar loaf mountain and the urca peninsula, the district is traditional and looks charming when viewed from the elevated position.

the hill is also home to a few kiosks serving basic snacks and drinks - on certain holidays and special occasions small fairs and live performances are staged here.

the other local landmark is known as the tunel do pasmado which provides access to copacabana.
