Burle Marx Cottage House and Gardens

The house where Roberto Burle Marx lived is part of the museum tour that allows visitors to discover all of its rooms. Visits can be scheduled by email or phone and are guided by specialized mediators. The service can be individual or in groups, lasting approximately 1h30. Located in Rio de Janeiro, the property where Burle Marx lived and produced his work in the last twenty years of his life was – and continues to be – a great laboratory for experimentation: over 3,500 species of tropical and subtropical plants coexist in harmony with native vegetation. In this tour we can visit beaches on the west side of the city. It is a unique place!
