• Sambodromo da Marques de Sapucai (Pass by)

  The Marquis of Sapucai was a teacher to Emperor Pedro II since his childhood and after he was an elder he was also a teacher to Princess Isabel. Because of so much dedication he became a street name. In 1978, the first organized parade took place on the avenue, but the stands were not fixed and the scheme was costly and time-consuming. The persecuted, criminalized and so often pushed away rhythm has conquered an entire avenue for itself and made it its stage. In 1984 it received Oscar Niemeyer's grand design, 700 meters long as the stage for the biggest open-air spectacle on the planet and which provokes many people; joys, emotions and dreams.
