About Liberdade

The place is the authentic Japan-town of the city. Distinguished by a tall red torii arch marking the entrance, the streets are full of hanging lanterns, shops selling Japanese and Chinese cuisine, various Manga artefacts and gift shops selling souvenirs and kimonos, cookware and Asian delicacies. There is a number of good restaurants where the menu includes sushi, ramen, yakisoba noodles, etc. The street market shops also sell handicrafts and gift items. It is a great fun outing with friends or families. In special events like New Year’s Eve or other programs, this place celebrates happily and wildly. The Oriental garden and the Busshinji Temple are two beautiful spots in this locality. For those who want to learn more about Japanese culture and immigration from here, the Museum of Japanese Immigration can be of much help.
