Rua do Lavradio, Historical street in Lapa district, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

This street runs from Rua do Riachuelo to Rua Visconde do Rio Branco, featuring colonial buildings and commercial establishments along its length.

The street received its name in 1771 from the Marquis of Lavradio, who served as Brazil's viceroy and established his residence at the corner of Rua da Relação.

The Brazilian Society of Fine Arts occupies the former residence of the Marquis, representing the street's connection to Rio de Janeiro's artistic heritage.

Every Saturday, the Feira do Rio Antigo market fills the street with vendors selling antiques, crafts, and local food products until late afternoon.

The street contains the Masonic Palace of Lavradio and Rio Scenarium, which remain central landmarks in Rio de Janeiro's entertainment district.
