Brazil is a deeply diverse country when it comes to tourist destinations, in terms of quantity, quality and variety. This means that the different cultures present in our country can please a wide range of national and international tourists who visit us.
And one of the destinations that best represent this is the small city of Canela, in Rio Grande do Sul. Unlike the paradisiacal, tropical and popular tourist cities on the Brazilian coast, Canela presents a completely different sort of attractions to the tourist:
Gastronomy. One of the main reasons for visiting Canela is to explore what the city has of best when it comes to gastronomy. In addition to several good restaurants, the city also has as attractions some breweries, stills and wineries, for those who are interested in good drink as well.
Unique architecture. Many tourists are attracted to the south of Brazil for presenting an architecture different from the rest of the country. This is due to the fact that colonization in the region was also made by countries other than the main Brazilian colonizer, Portugal. Among the diverse baggage of unique cultural references, we see the architecture. In Canela, this is evident throughout the urban area of the city and in its castelinhos ‘small castles’, houses that became tourist points open to the visitation of the public.
Ecotourism. Do not think that Canela only lives on small aspects. This city is also known for the variety of natural destinations available. There are plenty of park options with trails and waterfalls – great walking options during hot weather visits.
If you wish to get away from beaches on the next vacation, Canela should be seriously considered. It is a destination that exposes an unknown Brazil to millions of Brazilians, and, therefore, must be explored.
