Learning about Floripa




Last Saturday, we had the chance to visit the historic Palácio do Cruz e Sousa. It is located in the center of Floripa in the main square. It was built in the middle of the eighteenth century as the house of government. It is now preserved as a historic building.
Along with visiting the Palácio de Cruz e Sousa, we walked through the public market. There were tons of people there to watch the World Cup and enjoy the sunny day. Restaurants, shops, and their famous fish market are located in this beautiful yellow building.

While visiting Foz do Iguazu with the rest of the MHIRT students, we had the opportunity to skydive. We were able to see the intersection between Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina!



In Foz do Iguazu, we were also able to visit the bird park. It is a national park that works to protect and preserve endangered species.

The past weeks have been amazing! I have enjoyed getting to learn not just about Floripa and Foz but also about the people!
