About Porto Alegre
Porto Alegre sits on the Guaíba's shores as a gaucho stronghold, where Brazilian southern culture blends Italian immigration and cattle ranching traditions. The Rambla (waterfront promenade) pulses with human life, the city pulses with political activism and cultural production, and the nearby Jacuí Delta offers ecological refuge.
