Flamengo Park is a vast 1.2-million-square-meter seaside park created on reclaimed land, designed by the renowned landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx. Its undulating gardens, palm-lined paths, and modernist structures offer a serene waterfront escape. Visitors can cycle, jog, or skate along the bay, visit the Museum of Modern Art and the Carmen Miranda Museum, or simply relax on the grass with views of Sugarloaf Mountain. The park also hosts cultural events and has several monuments, making it a vibrant urban oasis.
