Curitiba is the capital and the largest city located in the Brazilian state of Paraná. The city is filled with cultural and historical attractions that make Curitiba a tourist hotspot. The Wire Opera House is one of the most striking buildings in the city, and was designed by architect, Domingos Bongestabs.
Located approximately ten miles from Curitiba is the city's airport. If you're flying here you should consider hiring a car from Afonso Pena International Airport to help you move around the city freely. By hiring a car from the airport, you can take the Avenida Comendador Franco and reach the heart of Curitiba in under 30 minutes.
While visiting this thriving metropolis, what better way to use your rental car than stopping by the Museu Oscar Niemeyer. This interesting collection of artefacts makes it one of the must-see sights of the city. Hiring a car from Afonso Pena International Airport also means you can plan a sunny day out at Parque Tangua, situated 20 minutes away from Curitiba itself. This Traveller's Choice Winner is an idyllic spot to sit back and relax no matter the time of day. For something in more daytrip distance, head out to Stone City at Vila Velha State Park, located about an hour and a half from central Curitiba.
