Grab a coffee at Preto Café. The space is designed for pausing and connecting, a perfect calm start before the walk.

Walk to the Copan Building. Head east from the café and spend the next twenty minutes looking up at the facade. The building’s curved shape catches the late afternoon sun beautifully.
17:22
Move to Praça da República. This square is only an eight-minute walk from the Copan and offers an open view of the skyline as the golden light peaks.
17:52
End with dinner at Miss Saigon. Located just six minutes from the square, this Vietnamese restaurant is open until 22:00, giving you plenty of time to settle in as the evening sets.
Local tip
Praça da República is the best vantage point to see the Copan against the sunset sky. The walk between the Copan and the square is short and flat.
