Antônio Prado Village: Brazil’s Italian Heritage Gains Global Recognition The charming village of Antônio Prado, located in Brazil’s Serra Gaúcha region in the south of Brazil, has gained international attention after being recognised by UN Tourism as one of the 52 Best Tourist Villages in the World in 2025. 🇮🇹 Founded by Italian immigrants, the town preserves an impressive historical heritage, with around 48 buildings listed by IPHAN, representing the largest collection of Italian immigrant architecture in Brazil. The recognition also highlights sustainability efforts: Antônio Prado invests in Atlantic Forest preservation, basic sanitation, solar energy, and social inclusion in rural areas. Beyond its architectural beauty, Italian culture thrives in events such as the Festa Nacional da Massa (FenaMassa), Italian Night, and “Vino in Piazza”, attracting visitors who appreciate history, gastronomy, and tradition. 🇧🇷 For people interested in living in Brazil, there are several visa options including temporary and permanent residency visas for work, volunteer service, digital nomad, study, family reunification, investment, athletic and artistic activity and more. Local authorities say this UN tourism recognition shows a collective effort built with planning, commitment, and love for history, a true example of how preserving the past can create opportunities for the future. details in the bio:
