the Parque Anchieta neighborhood is one of the most northern 'carioca' neighborhoods - the region beyond it is considered part of the municipality of Nilópolis, outside of the city of Rio de Janeiro. It is surrounded by the neighborhoods of anchieta and ricardo de albuquerque to the west, vila militar to the south, and realengo to the west. Parque Anchieta is predominantly residential and its main access routes are the railroad and a few important roads that connect it to nearby neighborhoods and to the Nilópolis municipality to the north. Anchieta was founded at the end of the 19th century, following the construction of a train station in the area. It was named in honor of the Jesuit father, José de Anchieta. |
