    The adult ticket 50 reals, for children at half price. It is a journey through the history of the construction of the Maracanã Stadium. You can visit the dressing rooms and access to the stadium track. Beautiful photos can be taken on the chairs of the reserve players. Good visit for lovers of football and boys

    Should be more easy to visit as occurred in 2015 but currently it's not every day that opens and that hinders the programming but the collection is top notch and worth.

    Having such a rich biography, Brazilian soccer could be muzeishhe, and not a museum. Pele, Tostao, Garrincha, Zico, Ronaldo, Djalma Santos, here are a few who forged the glory pentakampeonov. And then there's the money.

Where to stay in Rio de Janeiro

©
Accommodations in Rio de Janeiro cover as diverse a spectrum as the city itself. At the top end, you can find plenty of luxury hotels along the beaches of Zona Sul, the city's southern zone, which includes the renowned Copacabana and Ipanema beaches. For something to suit a budget, but with good beach access, look around the less crowded neighborhoods of Catele and Flamengo. If you want to stay as centrally as possible, without feeling like you're in a business district, look for lodgings in the colorful, bohemian neighborhood of Santa Teresa.
