Guaíba, Municipal district in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
Located on the western shore of Guaíba Lake, this municipality covers 377 square kilometers of land with direct access to waterways for transportation.
The region transformed from indigenous Guaraní settlements into a Portuguese colony through the sesmaria system, with official land acquisition by Antônio Ferreira Leitão in 1793.
The Church of Nossa Senhora do Livramento, established in 1857, marked the beginning of urban development and street organization in the municipality.
The city connects to Porto Alegre through federal highways and water routes, making it a central point for transportation and trade in Rio Grande do Sul.
Four major rivers - Jacuí, Sinos, Gravataí, and Caí - converge near the municipality, creating a complex water system that flows into Lagoa dos Patos.
