Vista Chinesa Brazil
Tucked away in the lush Tijuca National Park, Vista Chinesa is one of Rio de Janeiro’s best-kept secrets. This charming Chinese-style gazebo sits at an altitude of 380 metres and offers breathtaking panoramic views of Rio’s iconic landmarks, including Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, and Ipanema Beach.
Built in the early 20th century to honour Chinese immigrants, Vista Chinesa is not just a scenic viewpoint—it’s a peaceful retreat surrounded by tropical forest. Whether you’re hiking, cycling, or driving up, the journey through the Atlantic Forest is just as rewarding as the view itself. A perfect stop for nature lovers and photographers looking to capture a unique angle of Rio.
