Petrópolis in 2026: The Weekend That Gives Back What Búzios No Longer Can

Búzios has become a theme park. Angra is expensive and requires a boat. Petrópolis sits 68 km from downtown Rio, holds the best imperial museum in the country, the oldest operating brewery in Brazil, and three restaurants that would hold their own in Lisbon. This is the real itinerary for a weekend in 2026 — with addresses, prices in Brazilian reais, and what to avoid. (Context for foreign readers: Petrópolis was the imperial summer capital of Brazil under Emperor D. Pedro II in the 19th century.)
