Built where it was a 'favela' the Catacomb Park is the result of the execution of two notable projects: at the bottom, up the hillside half, a solid piece of architecture, gardening and landscaping created in place a sumptuous and pleasant space formed by boulevards, squares and gardens with lots of trees and an outdoor exhibition of sculptures by famous artists.
In another moment, the hillside to the top of the hill, was made reforestation, with the predominance of species found in the rainforest. Consequently, the local fauna emerged, formed mostly by birds and marmosets, like the one shown in the picture beside. A trail leads to the highest point of the hill, where a gazebo allows you to enjoy one of the most beautiful views of the Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas.
