Place: Quick City Overview
Curitiba is widely recognized for being one of the mode advanced and wealthiest cities of Brazil. Its urbanism and architecture was strongly influenced by the immigration of many countries, giving as a result a very weird image in various parts of the city. The Historical Center concentrates many of the stuff to see, as always, with buildings like the Palace of the Libertym the Praça Tiradantes and the Cathedral, but the most interesting things start to appear in the neighborhoods surrounding the Downtown and the metropolitan area. Amongst these strange and gorgeous places are the Eye of Óscar Niemeyer, the Panoramic Tower, the Botanical Garden, and a collection of Memorials dedicated to the immigration waves, such as the Bosque Alemao ("German Woods"), the Bosque do Papa (Polish Memorial), the Bosque do Portugal and the outstanding Ukrainian Memorial.
