Central Rio
|
 |
The aquaduct was, for me at least, the way to get to the famous steps in this part of town. People don't usually walk there, at least not tourists. |
 |
 |
I finally found my way back to the Metro line, but not without seeing this very colorful part of downtown. |
 |
 |
 |
A giant mural near a plaza in this, what seems to be a bar and restaurant district. |
 |
On the plaza there was this, a monument to Rio and the natives that once lived here. Sorry about the shot, there were unsavory types moving closer and I exied quickly. |
 |
This will certainly a well policed square during the Olympic games, and all around buildings were being renovated.. |
 |

 |
Before calling it a very excellent day and returning to Botafogo, I went to view this great soccer stadium that will feature big during the 2016 Olympics |
 |
 |
The station is fittingly decorated in a way that should please all soccer fans. |
 |
 |
Wating for my Metro train back, it's above ground here in the suburbs, I noticed these colorful municipal trains coming and going in another part of the station |
