Belém in Pará is surprising beautiful

Discovering the downtown of Belém...

With the Republic Square...

and the Peace Theater.

Built during the Rubber (white gold) cycle all the material for its construction came from abroad.

Chandelier from USA, 

metal parts from United Kingdom and mirrors and glasses from France.

Only the wooden pavement is from Brazilian wood...

with elements from the Rain Forest, like this Vitória-Régia.

More of our first day in Belém in the nect post.

Cheers!!
