Paraty is a municipality located in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It is situated on the southern coast of the state, about 200 kilometers (124 miles) from the city of Rio de Janeiro. Paraty is known for its stunning natural beauty, with its lush rainforest, white sand beaches and clear blue waters. It is also a popular tourist destination, with its cobblestone streets and colonial-era architecture.
The city was founded in 1667 and was originally known as Vila de Parati. It quickly became a major port city, thanks to its location at the entrance of the Paraty Bay. During the 18th and 19th centuries, it was one of Brazil’s major ports for the export of gold and diamonds. It was also a major port for the import of African slaves.
In the early 20th century, Paraty began to decline as a port city due to the increasing use of railway transport. However, it has since become a popular tourist destination due to its pristine natural beauty and its rich colonial-era history. The city is home to several important historical monuments, including the Church of Our Lady of the Remedies and the Church of Our Lady of the Conception.
Paraty is also known for its annual literary festival, which takes place every July. The festival brings together writers, artists and intellectuals from all over Brazil and the world. It is a great opportunity to experience the city’s culture and history.
