A healthy lifestyle starts early. Lagoa is a favorite
leisure area for children of all ages. After riding a
bicycle for hours, this group stops at a pier to stretch
and relax. |
| One of the novelties at Lagoa are the gourmet centers
with an assortment of kiosks selling snacks and
refreshments. One of the kiosks will even serve fresh
water to your dog while you enjoy a quick bite. |

Riding a rental tricycle is a good alternative if you
are not big enough to ride on two wheels yet. The setting
could not be prettier. The trees are on Piraque Island (a
private country club). In the back the looming hill of
Corcovado with the statue of Christ. |
| The spot across from the Jockey Club, where the old
Tivoli Park used to be, was completely renovated.
Playgrounds for children, roller skate rinks and a
skating bowl are among the new additions. If you are in
an adventurous mood, this is where you take a helicopter
tour to see the city from up above... |
