If you’re thinking of visiting or staying at Itaipava Castle<\/strong>, let me talk to you as a friend.<\/p>\n\n

Because when you see the photos, the impression is that you’re entering a European castle in the middle of the hills of Rio de Janeiro. Towers, shields, knights, medieval architecture… it all looks like a movie set. <\/p>\n\n

And yes, the visual impact is real.<\/p>\n\n

But the experience will depend a lot on what you expect.<\/p>\n\n

We’ve been to Itaipava Castle twice: once just to visit and once to stay. And they were completely different experiences. There was enchantment, there was frustration, there was an adjustment of expectations – and that’s exactly what I want to tell you here. <\/p>\n\n

If you’re putting together an itinerary for the mountain region, save this post. It may avoid disappointment… or confirm that it’s exactly what you’re looking for. <\/p>\n\n
