What to do and see in Paraty, State of Rio de Janeiro (RJ): The Best Museums

October 10, 2021 Matilde Konrad

Named for a local swamp fish, Paraty sits on Brazil's southeastern coast, 125 miles south of Rio, with the Bocaino Mountains at its back. The small colonial town's center is a national historic monument with well-preserved buildings on its pedestrian-only streets. Take a boat trip out into the bay to the flotillas of islands and coves nearby. Explore sugarcane plantations and hike or take a train through Atlantica Forest. Keep an eye out for the monkeys that roam the cobblestone streets.

Galeria Aecio Sarti

Art gallery in the historic center of paraty

Reviewed By Ananda100 - Nanaimo, Canada

I was lucky enough to meet the artist in residence and thoroughly enjoyed both the gallery and talking politics for an hour. A very impassioned man. For me his paintings delved into the images of solitary and connection to others.

Casa da Cultura de Paraty

Located in the Historic Center, close to Matriz Square, Casa da Cultura is the main public cultural equipment of a city that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its objectives are both to preserve and enhance Paraty's cultural heritage, as well as to foster the creation, production and dissemination of all artistic manifestations in the city. Since 2013, it has been undergoing a revitalization: management is updated, resources are obtained through tax incentive laws, and what was a history of significant cultural activities, but not always with the desired continuity, becomes a permanent program of exhibitions , presentations and courses in arts, music, cinema and theater, all year round.
