    MIS Rio é muito bonito! Atualmente encontra se no bairro da Lapa e em breve irá mudar pra sua nova sede em Copacabana. Ele é um museu muito organizado com vários itens antigos, tudo muito bem escolhido! Adorei conhecer! Fica bem perto do Arqueduto da Lapa. O melhor de tudo: GRATUITO! Indico a todos! 5 estrelas e nota 10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    In the middle of Lapa's bohemia lies this beautiful little building. It is always worth observing the good exhibitions on display. The receptionist is friendly.

    A very small museum in size, but grand in the moments portrayed. The walls with Testimonials for Posterity bring us a lot of emotion. I loved recording the music that marked my story. It's a quick visit, to a nice place to walk among the letters of history. Reception service is also excellent.

    Well, the staff is awesome, but there's very little to see. The main branch STILL isn't open after almost 10 yrs of stalling. And the Carmen Miranda stuff is still in storage after 10 years as well. Gov't funds are scarse!

    Very quick visit! The place is very small, it doesn't have a very large collection, but what it did have were very old pieces, as it should be, and well organized! It's worth a visit, especially because entry is free and it's between Arcos da Lapa and Escadaria Selarón.

    This museum of image and sound occupies a small space. It can be found easily when you walk between the Arqueduct and Escadaria Selaron, the Lapa Stairs. The staff is superfriendly and they offer a place to sit. Beverages are allowed to drink inside and you can learn a bit about sound and image. Maybe not a lot yet you can enjoy some minutes there. Admission is free.
