Located in an old safe factory, Fundição Progresso is a self-sustaining cultural centre, home to art schools, paintings exhibitions, theatre plays, circus performances, and great musical shows.

Housed in a historic mansion, with a garden, vinyl record collection, and hookahs, Bar Bukowski is the oldest rock house in Rio de Janeiro. It offers several bars and dance floors in a large outdoor area and hosts concerts and artistic performances for the entertainment of its customers and is absolutely worth a visit–not only for fans of the genre.
