for those that enjoy spending time in a tranquil neighborhood with ample green spaces in which to enjoy regular physical activities, flamengo is an ideal location - a mainly residential area that can be easily accessed by both bus and subway, it is something of an oasis in the middle of the city.

after a day spent riding down the bike trails and taking in the views from flamengo beach, visitors looking to have an exceptional night out can head to praça são salvador in the adjacent neighborhood of laranjeiras, on a wednesday and friday, where the plaza is filled by locals and street vendors mingling with one another.
