Immersive experience in the Rocinha favela.
Favela Rocinha, Rio de Janeiro
Unique experience in the Rocinha Favela. We will enjoy incredible views, visit social projects and immerse ourselves in the local culture.
Highlights
- Meet a highly qualified local guide, political scientist, and social activist
- Learn about Rocinha's historical development to the present day
- Visit places with breathtaking views
Description
We will begin the experience using the community's transportation system called Moto Taxi. We will go to the top of the favela to enjoy one of the most beautiful views of the city, where we will talk about the social contrast and construction of the favela.
In the second phase, we will visit two social projects that generate impact through struggle and art and talk about their historical basis.
In the third phase, we will enter the alleys to understand the lives of the locals and immerse ourselves in the local culture. I believe this is the best part.
In the last moment, we will have a meal and understand what the economic structure of the place is like.
This immersive activity started 5 years ago with the aim of reaching people from all over the world and changing people's mindsets through a unique experience inside the favela, and throughout the experience I take photos and videos so that you can remember this moment of connection with another culture.
