Parque da Orla do Guaíba, Waterfront park in Porto Alegre, Brazil

The Orla do Guaíba extends for 1.5 kilometers along the Guaíba River, offering walking paths, sports areas, and observation points for visitors.

The waterfront underwent major changes in the 1940s after a severe flood, leading to protective walls that altered the relationship between city and river.

The park serves as a central gathering space where residents participate in outdoor activities and watch the sunset over the Guaíba River.

The park includes cafes, restrooms, and vendor stands housed in glass-fronted structures, with connections to public transportation and parking facilities.

The design by Jaime Lerner incorporates multiple levels across 56.7 hectares, featuring semi-buried constructions that merge with the natural landscape.
