Beautiful sunsets
The sunset over Guiaiba is probably the most beautiful image that you can see in Porto Alegre. It is a point of pride for the locals, as this is often considered to be the most beautiful sunset in Brazil. The Guaba is actually not a river, but a river delta; the name comes from the language of the Indians who lived here, meaning "deep swamp". The Guaba has several islands and a drawbridge, which is considered a symbol of Porto Alegre. But the beauty of the Guaba is in its waters, when they take on the colours of the sunset. You will always see people here admiring it. Be sure to take some photos!
