Praça XV de Novembro
Praca 15 de Novembro
About
Just a stone's throw from the ferry terminal that links Rio with the city of Niteroi and the island of Paqueta, Praca 15 de Novembro is a lively square that hosts a bustling flea market each Saturday. With vendors selling everything from antique furniture to vintage vinyl, clothes, and accessories, it's easy to while away an entire Saturday morning browsing the stalls. Midweek, the square is quieter, but the Espaco Cultural da Marinha – a museum dedicated to Rio's seafaring history – is well worth a visit, and there are numerous good lunch spots nearby. - Lucy Bryson
