Sightseeing

This is a good reference to keep in mind. It is right across Padaria Ipanema that is open until very late. The church itself is worth a visit, with lovely stained glass windows from Munich.

One of the lovely 3-story malls in Ipanema with a great shop combination. On top there's a commercial building. Do not miss the soap store and the café on the ground floor, and beach wear on the 2nd.

There are actually 5 of these supermarkets in Ipanema. I prefer the one between Rua Garcia D'Ávila and Rua Anibal de Mendonça. This is where you buy groceries, fruit, vegetables, ceral, drinks.
