1. Rua Gonçalo de Carval, Porto Alegre, Brazil
In Porto Alegre, Brazil, there is a 500-meter long street: Rua Gonçalo de Carvalho, a beautiful boulevard, known as the most beautiful green street in the world.
Although it is a little inferior to those streets in various countries where the flowers are blooming and the movie scenes are so beautiful that they are dreamy. Why does it stand out?
The reason why Rua Goncalo de Carvalho is so famous is not just the visual beauty brought by the greenery, but more importantly the symbolic meaning behind it.
In 2005, a shopping mall to be built here would cause damage to the surrounding trees. Residents strongly opposed it and successfully persuaded the mayor to preserve the cultural landscape. The government's compromise, business concessions, and citizens' cherishment make this green avenue even more precious.
At the same time, it also represents one of the few successful examples of the environmental struggle, a survivor of urban development. So if you have the chance, please feel the beauty of life it brings.
