Three days in Sao Leopoldo

Day one: Begin in São Leopoldo, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul in southern Brazil. Get your bearings in the centre, then use the city as your base for the days ahead.

Day two: Continue exploring São Leopoldo at an easy pace, keeping to the streets and squares of the centre rather than trying to cover the whole municipality.

Day three: Spend a final day in São Leopoldo before moving on elsewhere in Rio Grande do Sul or the wider Sul region of Brazil.
