Rio de Janeiro, Brazil · About Before your trip

Viviana’s eclectic house is a perfect introduction to the bohemian Santa Teresa neighborhood, where restored colonials mingle with art studios. The view from inside is just the start. Panoramas seem to lurk around every corner, whether you’re wandering the area’s hilly streets or climbing Escadaria Selarón—the famous nearby staircase covered in brilliant mosaics.
