- Sao Bento Monastery - The Abbey of Our Lady of Montserrat, more commonly known as the Mosteiro de São Bento (Monastery of St. Benedict), is a Benedictine abbey located in downtown Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The abbey was founded by Benedictine monks who came from the state of Bahia in 1590. It is still operational today, along with the Colégio de São Bento (St. Benedict College) nearby.
The façade was part of the original Mannerist project and featured a centralized edifice with three archways at the entrance, as well as a triangular gable. Two towers crowned by pyramidal spires flanked the entryway. After passing through the entrance archway, the building houses a tiled porch and iron gates from the nineteenth century.

Rio City Centre Tour with Monica Bertazzolo - We were on a tour of downtown Rio with our Monica Guide Francesca Bertazzolo, an amazing day!! Monica explained everything in many details, about the history of Rio, its creation and in each place we visited explained and absolved all our doubts. Super friendly, attentive to our needs, very patient and very cheerful, we take great memories of Brazil and will definitely return to Rio and again think of Monica to accompany me and my family.
