Historical Army Museum

by Willettsworld - last update: Apr 3, 2007

Opened in 1987, the Historical Army Museum within the Forte de Copacabana exhibits key military personalities from Brazil's history. Information about the objects on display, mannequins, military medals and furniture are provided by a bilingual multi-media system in a climate-controlled environment. The scenes take you from the Colonial/Empire times through to Brazil in the Second World War.

 When I went to South America four years ago this was my favorite place to shop. Several shops carried religious antiques of great quality at fair prices. Bring cash; they seldom take credit cards.

 Looking for India tips, I could ceck you visit my city , Rio, and you did your lesson very well. Good job, one of the best Rio´s page, but you have to come back and visit some cities near Rio as Buzios and Paraty. Be welcome. I rate all your tips.
