National beauty…

This afternoon we walked to the national park next door to the house in Teresópolis. It was a beautiful day but there were very few visitors. IMG_6421 (1024x683)The park has a large spring-fed pool and tons of beautiful landscaping. park reflection_6481 (644x1024) IMG_6483 (1024x683) The highlight is probably the waterfalls.

If you find yourself in Teresópolis, I would highly recommend a trip to this wonder place. There’s also a scale model of the mountains in this area with trails marked with lights.IMG_6563 (1024x683)
