Vinte De Maio Park is worth a pic or two when discovering Vila Ipiranga. If you have fun at Vinte De Maio Park, you'll love Porto Alegre Botanical Garden and Museum of Science and Technology PUCRS, both located nearby.
If you want to see a show while you're in town, try and grab some tickets at CIEE Theater in Higienopolis. If you enjoy the show and want to see another, Araujo Vianna Auditorium, Sao Pedro Theater, and Camara Tulio Piva Theater are not far.
