Day Trip to Nova Petrópolis
We'll meet at the meeting point in Canela or Gramado, as chosen during booking, and set off for Nova Petrópolis.
The first immigrants arrived in Nova Petrópolis in 1858 from Pomerania, Bohemia, and Saxony. Upon arrival, we'll review this history by visiting Pedras do Silêncio (Sculpture Park Silent Stones) and Aldeia do Imigrante to learn about German arrivals.
Next, we will visit Praça das Flores (also known as Praça da República) to appreciate its vegetation. We will continue exploring Nova Petrópolis at the Green Maze, navigating through the cypress trees.
The tour includes a visit to Casa Sander, a family-run agribusiness founded by Bohemian immigrants, where we will taste jellies with crackers, toast, juice, and tea.
We will then proceed to Jardim do Moinho, where history and gastronomy converge, and visit a cosmetics store offering products made with rosehip oil.
The day trip will finish 9 hours later back at the starting point.
