Curitiba City Sights

January 29, 2006 (Curitiba, Parana, Brazil)
Curitiba is a very modern, clean and well-planned city. I ran into Boyd as I was getting to the Linha Turismo Bus, a great way to tour the city with 25 points of interest and the opportunity to hop on and off the bus 5 times. Highlights include Rua 24 Horas (street w/ restaurants and shops open 24/7), Jardim Botanico (Botanical Gardens), Museu Oscar Niemeyer (eye-shaped museum), Bosque Alemao (garden dedicated to German immigrants), Opera de Arame (opera house), Parque Tangua (park w/ brightly colored buildings) and Torre Panoramica Brasil Telecom (tower with panoramic views of Curitiba). After the bus tour ended at Setor Historico, I walked around the area and then back to the Pestana Curitiba Hotel where I've called home for almost a month.
