"A WISE TRAVELER NEVER SPREADS HIS OWN COUNTRY "
Carlos Goldoni
STORY
A beautiful colonial city, considered a National Historic Landmark, it still preserves its innumerable natural and architectural charms today.
We are a family owned and operated business.
Strolling through the Historic Center of Paraty is to enter another era, where walking is slow due to the "pebble stones" of its streets.
The constructions of their mansions and churches reflect a period style and the mysterious Masonic symbols that adorn its walls lead us to imagine what life in Brazil would have been like in the past. The ban on car traffic in the Center contributes to this journey through the "Time Tunnel".
The city was founded in 1667 around the Church of Nossa Senhora dos Remédios, its patron saint. It had great economic importance due to the sugar cane mills (it had more than 100), being considered synonymous with good brandy.
In the 18th century, gold and precious stones that shipped to Portugal stood out as an important port through which Minas Gerais flowed. However, constant attacks by pirates caused the gold route to be changed, leading the city to great economic isolation.
After the opening of the Paraty-Cunha Road, and mainly, after the construction of the Rio-Santos Highway in the '70s, Paraty became a national and international tourism pole, due to its good state of conservation and thanks to its natural beauty .
In its area are the Serra da Bocaina National Park, the Cairuçú Environmental Protection Area, where Vila da Trindade is located, the Joatinga Reserve, and it also borders the Serra do Mar State Park. , it is Atlantic Forest everywhere.
