What to expect in Petrópolis in August
Editor's tip
August is the heart of winter in Petrópolis. In Brazil the seasons are the reverse of those in the Northern Hemisphere. Lows hover around 12 °C (54 °F), so a heavy coat and cold-weather clothing are essential, especially at night. Crowds are light, which tends to work in favor of travelers: shorter lines, more peace and quiet, and cheaper lodging. It also rains very little: this is one of the driest months of the year, good for anyone who wants an outdoor itinerary. If the dates line up, it is worth fitting Bunka-Sai (Japanese Culture Festival) into your itinerary: it is what livens up the destination at that time of year.
