Morro da Urca

Must-visit spot
  Morro da Urca rises prominently near the famous Sugarloaf Mountain in Rio de Janeiro. Dating back to the late 19th century, it originally served as a military lookout and is now a popular spot for visitors. The main feature is the cable car that transports guests from the base of the mountain, offering remarkable views as it ascends 220 meters. Particularly in December, visitors flock to the area for the festive atmosphere, which includes vibrant events and celebrations. At the top, guests can explore walking trails, enjoy refreshments, and take in panoramic views of Guanabara Bay and the surrounding city.
