Petrópolis mixes history, with bucolismo and also several options of tours for all kinds of tourists, whether for those who like to enjoy craft or embroidered beers and even rural tourism. Known as the Imperial City, Petropolis was founded by Emperor D. Pedro II, who built a palace and lived there.

“We chose Petropolis, because it is an important destination not only for Rio de Janeiro, but also for all of Brazil. And since Schultz always seeks to help boost local tourism by choosing the host city of the convention, we think of this beautiful city in Rio, “explained Ana Santana, general director of Schultz. The company chose the city as the seat of the 11th Schultz Sales Convention.

One of the favorite destinations of cariocas in the winter, Petrópolis has the charm of the constructions of the imperial period allied with the cold of the mountain range. In addition, it offers quality infrastructure with comfortable hotels, excellent restaurants and varied commerce.

For those who love nature, there are options such as the Serra dos Órgãos National Park with waterfalls and trails. And for those who love a historical tour, the visit has to pass by the Imperial Museum, former residence of the Imperial family, where there is furniture of the time. Built in 1845, as a summer residence of the royal family, the place still holds documents, jewels and objects of court members.

There are also the Cathedral of São Pedro de Alcântara and the House of Santos Dumont, as well as the Crystal Palace and the Quitandinha, essential in any walk through the city. Schultz thought of all the sites and included tours and events at many of these historic sites. “Our program values ​​the region and invites everyone to know more about this enchanting city,” said Ana.

The city has a multitude of circuits for each type of tourist: Walking Tour in the Historic Center, Circuit Brewery of Petrópolis, Circuit of Churches and Temples, Fashion Circuit Petrópolis, Rural Eco Circuits, Royal Road, Parks and Picnics, Cultural Passport, Tour in Jeep, Tour in Victories and Tour of the Experience – Paths of Imperial Brazil.
