Originally settled by pirates and slave traders, it prospered and became a picturesque fishing village, elected one of the 10 most beautiful areas in the world, famous for its unique combination of rustic charm, architectural harmony, incredible beauty and sophisticated boutiques and restaurants frequented by visitors who come from all over the world .

Búzios has a very active nightlife, with shows, nightclubs, parties, restaurants and bars for all tastes. The central point is Rua das Pedras, a charming and eclectic street, where it is common to run into famous people and hear foreign languages all over the place. That is where you really notice the number of foreigners that are in the city. Rua das Pedras is the center for bars and restaurants. This is where it all happens.The street is a little over 1200 feet long, but it is charm laden from one end to the other. If it were not for this street, Búzios certainly would not be the same. Restaurants serve dishes will all the gastronomic accents. Charming bars with live shows - some facing the ocean - invite you in to sit and appreciate the action. Art galleries, stores selling national and international brands, many pretty people sun tanned from the beach all year long complete the scenery.
