Rio’s favorite bookshop, Livraria da Travessa is a local chain of beautiful stores, stocked with the best of Brazil’s publishing industry as well as foreign titles. If there is a book you are looking for, Travessa will have it. Many independent publishers and authors get a space at the shelves making them a throve of treasures. The bookshops have a café and are open for long hours becoming a meeting point of cariocas at all times of the day. There are book signings almost on a daily basis so you may run into a celebrity or two.
