SANTA FELICIDADE

It is the extravagant Italian quarter of Santa Felicidade, 20 minutes by bus, to take Tav. Nestor de Castro, behind the cathedral. It was the neighbourhood where Italian immigrants arrived between the late th and early th centuries. It was Dona Felicidade Borges who gave this neighbourhood to the Italian colony (hence his name), who devoted himself to the production of earth products. Today Santa Felicidade is the large gastronomic district in Curitiba, where you will find several Italian restaurants of quality.
