Porto Alegre is an ideal and "authentic" location to invest in Brazilian property as it offers a classy and friendly atmosphere.
According to Brazilian Embassy in Washington DC, Porto Alegre, the largest city in southern Brazil, is the capital of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The city, located on the Guaiba River, has received numerous expats from other parts of the world, particularly Germany, Poland, and Italy. Located at the junction of five rivers, it has become an important alluvial port as well as one of the chief industrial and commercial centers in Brazil.
Richard Fiander, a travel writer for Recorder Newspapers, said that while most people's images of Brazil are of the vibrant, colorful Carnival in Rio, it also has its quieter regions which would be ideal for setting up home. Porto Alegre is one of the richest metropolises in the country and has the highest life quality rate in Brazil.
"A fun place in the heart of Porto Alegre is the Mercado publico [public market] an magnificent neo classical style building that contains a vast mix of stalls selling household goods, meat, fish, vegetables, wine, regional handicrafts and a variety of herbs and teas," he added.
The writer added that the Serra Gaucha, The Gaucho Highlands is the mountainous region in the northeastern portion of the state, which is a popular destination between June and August as people go in search of snow, while hiking is also "excellent all-year round".
