The Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Carmo da Antiga Sé in Rio de Janeiro is a beautifully restored church with a rich history dating back to the 1770s. This former cathedral witnessed royal baptisms, weddings, and funereal rites, making it a significant site during the imperial days of Rio.

It's worth going inside if you have the time!
