Soaking in the Sunset in Porto Alegre

img_44831Porto Alegre is the capital city of Rio Grande do Sul, the southernmost state of Brazil. Head toward the river around sundown for spectacular views of the pôr-do-sol (sunset). You will find many locals sitting outside the old power plant (Usina do Gastrómetro) enjoying the scene and drinking chimarrão (a popular loose-leaf tea drunk out of a gourd and shared among friends).
