Parque das Ruínas, Cultural center in Santa Teresa, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The park contains the structural remains of an early twentieth-century mansion with metal walkways providing panoramic views of Guanabara Bay.
The mansion belonged to Laurinda Santos Lobo, who hosted numerous intellectuals and artists during the 1920s before the property fell into disrepair.
The venue maintains an exhibition space in the cellar area and features regular outdoor music performances on Sunday afternoons.
The park opens from Tuesday through Sunday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with free admission and convenient access via local bus transportation.
The 1993 renovation project preserved the original mansion walls while incorporating modern metal structures to create observation platforms.
