Downtown Florianópolis
Florianópolis means city of flowers.

Very old buildings mixed with very new buildings

Building materials near Lagoa do Peri

The tunnels to the downtown area.

The favela of Floripa.

In the middle of the city is a small park with this 350 year old tree.

I think this tree is gnarley.... dude.

Night time shot of the gnarley 350 year old tree.

Many streets were closed to cars to allow pedestrian shopping.

Lots of crazy promotions everywhere.

Floripans walking the strange city streets.

I've never seen so many pastel buildings.

The tree limbs had metal supports to keep them up.

Some pigeons waiting to poop on the next sorry soul.

The Floripan Tree of Life

The Flag of Florianopolis

Lots of very different architecture.

Some of these buildings are hundreds of years old.

Near the bus-stop

A tribute to he architects of the city.

The northern end of the city.
