Due to a lack of Portuguese understanding, we get an orange juice with mint. Special, but definitely tasty. The baroque theater, which is well worth seeing, is already here <b>Theatro Municipal<\/b> into the field of vision, definitely one of the most beautiful buildings in Rio. Unfortunately, all sightseeing tours inside are already booked for today. Continue to <b>Largo da Carioca<\/b>, where a small market is stationed and above it the old Portuguese <b>Sao Francisco da Penitencia Church\u00a0<\/b>from the 17th century.<\/p>\n<p><img data-opt-id=2064582941  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-5269\" src=\"https:\/\/mlnnzcgf0rm9.i.optimole.com\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/marcelgross.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/2014_11_14_3.jpg\" alt=\"2014_11_14_3\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mlnnzcgf0rm9.i.optimole.com\/w:1170\/h:658\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/www.marcelgross.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/2014_11_14_3.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/mlnnzcgf0rm9.i.optimole.com\/w:600\/h:337\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/www.marcelgross.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/2014_11_14_3.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We can achieve this through other extremely busy streets\u00a0<b>Real Gabinete Portugu\u00eas de Leitura<\/b>.

We grab a seat, drink wine and beer and watch the goings-on and enjoy the cozy atmosphere. We get to know other specifics that are typical of the country. My beer contains 6dl and Niki&#039;s table wine is also sweetened. One of the unexpectedly little English-speaking Brazilians explains it to us and says that the bar opposite is a lot better.<\/p>\n<p><img data-opt-id=1532590428  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-5267\" src=\"https:\/\/mlnnzcgf0rm9.i.optimole.com\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/marcelgross.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/2014_11_14_1.jpg\" alt=\"2014_11_14_1\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mlnnzcgf0rm9.i.optimole.com\/w:1170\/h:658\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/www.marcelgross.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/2014_11_14_1.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/mlnnzcgf0rm9.i.optimole.com\/w:600\/h:337\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/www.marcelgross.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/2014_11_14_1.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Then we look for a restaurant and finally end up in the <b>Rio Scenarium<\/b>.
