Fundação Maria Luisa e Oscar Americano

Fodor's Review:

A beautiful, quiet private wooded estate is the setting for the Maria Luisa and Oscar Americano Foundation. Paintings, furniture, sacred art, silver, porcelain, engravings, personal possessions of the Brazilian royal family, tapestries, and sculpture are among the 1,500 objects from the Portuguese colonial and imperial periods. There are some modern pieces as well, along with an exclusive tea room and an auditorium that hosts concerts on Sundays.
