The Parque Lage was designed in 1840 by English landscape artist John Tyndale. Its central palace is located in this beautiful european romantic style garden that shares the attention with the native forest of Mata Atlântica on the slopes of Morro do Corcovado, being one of the most beautiful architectural postcards of the city.

The PLage Café is located in the central courtyard of this beautiful mansion from the 19th century, by the pool. It offers a delicious breakfast, brunch and lunch that can be enjoyed 7 days a week with continuous service. The PLage Café also has a food-bike in the parque that offers various snacks to savor amid all that exuberance, perfect for a pic-nic among friends and family. This premier site also houses the Visual Arts School, the EAV and is the venue for art and music events all year round.
