Carnival is not synonymous with samba, axé, drink, blocks and parades for everyone! For some people, the most traditional party in the country is a rest period, which also serves to enjoy leisure options with more tranquility.
Feambra (Federation of Friends of Brazilian Museums) consulted 90 museums in the cities of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Minas Gerais, and found that 18 of them will be open during the holiday. In addition to providing significant cultural enrichment, these venues offer tickets at symbolic or even free prices.
