Well, not only the lives south of Rio de Janeiro. The suburb also has a very good thing. One is the samba Workers happens every Monday from 15h to 21h. Jeez time that ingrate!
This samba rolls at the club Renaissance in Andarai, and is frequented by many icons of samba carioca.
The place in itself is special, was founded in the late '50s as a place of fun and black assertiveness. The club has a courtyard with a tree in the middle, which seems to ask to have a samba by.
The wheel has become a big hit in the city, about to launch CD and DVD showing the artists who were present.
For those who like samba is a good tip!
If you is not working and so second is a day to go bad for you, roll a wheel held by the brother of Zeca Pagodinho Saturday afternoon and also bomb!
The club is located at Rua Barao de Sao Francisco, 54 (near the supermarket Guanabara) - Andaraí - Tel :2572-2322

Pra there is easy, follow the Avenue of the Americas, across from the Recreio Shopping instead of going up the flyover following the Avenue of the Americas, bear right as if it were beneath him. Necessarily going to have to turn right at the Dead River Road, follow to the end. Passing through 6 speed bumps and at the end of it she finds the road of the pioneers. Turn right and you'll see the Nectar. Better than that only using GPS or google maps!
