Conservatória - October 2012

Our Specific Page About Conservatória

My Commentary: Going to Conservatória was initially an idea of my mother. Going to Rio's territory is never my deal. But knowing a little more about the town's story, I got interested. Conservatória has a folk music tradition (serestas and serenatas) also it salutes the Imperial times when it was somehow important.

First stop at Churrascaria Retiro da Serra. Good food (barbecue) and good price!
