Audio guide15 stops

Beneath Centro Histórico’s grand facades, whispers of uprisings, lost poets, and vanished treasures echo through sunlit corridors and shadowed squares. This self-guided audio tour cracks open Porto Alegre’s heart, revealing backstories most travelers never hear. Feel the weight of power shifts at Piratini Palace. Wonder what secrets Alfândega Square still keeps beneath its lively surface. Why did Mario Quintana retreat to his enigmatic pink fortress and who watched him from the rooftops? Uncover political clashes that shook these boulevards and chase rumors of rebellions plotted in smoky corners. Each step unearths another hidden tale as you wind past landmarks that shaped the city—and kept its biggest secrets close. Get ready to move through centuries with new eyes. The past is alive here, just out of sight. Hit play and let Porto Alegre’s mysteries pull you in from your very first stride.
