One of World Heritage Sites of Rio de Janeiro is located in the port area of the city. Valongo Wharf is a place that refers to the Brazilian colonial past. Being one of the main\u00a0ports of African slaves until the mid-nineteenth century, the place evokes painful memories of deep structural racism between whites and blacks. According to the Secretary of Culture of Rio, Nilcemar Nogueira, the nomination of Valongo Wharf as World Heritage of Unesco represents a step forward for the recognition and reparation of national memory.<\/p>\n
To get to know Valongo Wharf better, guarantee you stay at a hotel near the region, such as Pompeu<\/a>, located in Porto Maravilha. The hotel offers maximum comfort to its guests.<\/p>\n Most people recognize The Marvelous City because\u00a0of its many tourist attractions, such as Christ the Redeemer, one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
