When visiting historic buildings it is impossible not to think about what the lives of those who lived there were like. At the Ipiranga museum is no different.
On his visit, at the beginning of May, Pedro Henrique he thought he was stepping into the same place that Dom Pedro I, or any other member of the Brazilian imperial family, had stepped into.
Despite the affectionate memories of those who were able to visit the Museum before its closure, It is worth mentioning that no member of the Brazilian imperial family lived there. The work was inaugurated 73 years after Brazil's Independence and 61 years after the death of the first Brazilian emperor.

Pedro Henrique, who visited the museum in his childhood, remembered well the furniture and rooms of the 'great house' of Dom Pedro I, and even imagined himself living in that palace.
“It’s not the same as it was before. Before, you could see some preserved parts of the museum in each room,” lamented.
Despite his frustration, Pedro praised the structure of the museum and the arrangement of the objects on display.

The exhibitions are temporary and change every six months, so it's worth checking out the official website of the museum.

On sunny days the “park” is crowded. Children have fun in the fountains installed in the museum garden. Some water cannons were placed there, precisely to cool off the public.
On weekends, there is also a very nice little market available to those who stroll around the area. Pastries, barbecue, beer, paella and sweets are some of the dishes that attract the most there, making the tour completely fun. Worth the visit!
