Porto Alegre

Lake Guaíba defines the setting of Porto Alegre — its wide waterfront influences daily life through ferries, public parks and the city’s popular sunset gatherings. As the capital of Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre is an important centre of gaúcho culture, where churrasco, chimarrão and football are firmly part of local identity. The Mercado Público, inaugurated in 1869 in the historic centre, remains a lively stop for regional produce, spices and traditional food. The renewed Orla do Guaíba links the urban shore with promenades and open public space. Continue with other webcams from Rio Grande do Sul to see how southern Brazil connects regionally.
