Getting There

• Metro

  Begin your journey at the nearest metro station, which is 'Cinelândia' (Line 1 - Light Blue Line). From Cinelândia, travel towards 'Jardim Oceânico' and get off at 'Carioca' station. Once you exit the station, head towards Rua do Passeio and continue walking until you reach Avenida Rio Branco. Turn left and continue walking until you reach the 'Praça da República'.

• Bus

  If you prefer to take a bus, make your way to 'Praça da República' and look for bus lines that head towards Petrópolis. The 'Petropolis' bus terminal is well-connected with several bus lines. Once you arrive at the 'Pedro de Alcântara' bus stop in Petrópolis, walk west on Rua Alfredo Pachá until you reach the Palácio de Cristal, which will be on your left.

• Walking

  For those who enjoy walking, you can take a leisurely stroll from the center of Petrópolis. Start at the Imperial Museum, located on Praça da Liberdade. From there, walk east on Rua do Imperador, then turn left onto Rua Alfredo Pachá. Continue straight until you reach the Palácio de Cristal, which is located at the end of the street.

• Taxi or Ride-sharing

  For a more direct route, consider using a taxi or a ride-sharing service. Simply input 'Palácio de Cristal' as your destination. The driver will take you to R. Alfredo Pachá, s/n - Centro, where the Palácio de Cristal is located. This is a convenient option if you are carrying luggage or prefer not to navigate public transport.
