Boulevard Olímpico in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil is a vibrant promenade that used to be a rundown port district but has now been transformed into a colorful area. The highlight is a massive mural by artist Eduardo Kobra called Etnias, featuring stunning portraits of indigenous people from around the world. You can stroll along the boulevard, check out the cool murals, grab a bite from food trucks, and enjoy views of the bay.
This is a pedestrian-only zone, so the best way to get here is by using the VLT tram system.
