Saúde / Culture
Begin here. Exposed paving marks the port where enslaved Africans were brought into Rio. This archaeological site is a place to confront the city’s role in the Atlantic slave trade and the history of the surrounding port district.
Praça Mauá / Culture
Continue to this stop. A sculptural waterfront building frames a science museum concerned with the planet and possible futures. Pair its exhibitions with time outside on Praça Mauá to see how the museum connects the redeveloped port to Guanabara Bay.
Centro / Culture
Continue to this stop. A former banking building now hosts exhibitions and cultural programming around a striking domed rotunda. It is a good anchor for exploring Centro’s historic buildings; check the current programme before choosing how long to stay.
