Laranjeiras Palace, Official residence in Laranjeiras, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Laranjeiras Palace is an official residence with eclectic architecture located in Rio de Janeiro's southern Laranjeiras neighborhood. The building features grand rooms, ornate finishes, and landscaped gardens set within a park setting.

The building was constructed in 1914 as a private residence for wealthy businessman Eduardo Guinle. The federal government acquired the property in 1947 to serve as a guest residence for high-ranking foreign visitors.

The palace holds collections of Brazilian furniture, paintings, and decorative crafts that span different periods of the nation's artistic history. These objects show how the country's taste and craft techniques evolved over time.

The building is located at Paulo Cesar Andrade Street 407 and is open only for arranged group visits. Visitors must contact the state government office in advance to schedule a tour.

The interior showcases a blend of French, Italian, and Brazilian architectural elements, including marble staircases and native wood carvings. This combination of different international influences is clearly visible throughout the carefully crafted rooms.
