Setting the ostentation aside, what is really impressive is the theatre auditorium, currently with a capacity for 900 spectators, and its wonderful decorative details. Visits to the Paz Theatre are guided and begin in the entrance hall, composed of decorative materials imported from Europe: "English cast iron in the door arches, Italian marble staircase French chandelier, busts made of Carrara marble (.), statues in French bronze, floor with Portuguese paving stones forming a mosaic and bonded with a glue made from Gurijuba (fish found in the region), walls and ceiling painted to depict the Greek arts,” according to the theatre’s official site. Don’t be surprised, then, if they suggest you try an oil to ward off the evil eye or even “bota oil", which is much praised by the vendors as an enhancer of sexual performance.Īs touristy as it may seem, the Ver-o-Peso market is really a must-visit. There is, at the Ver-o-Peso market, an oil, herb or bark for everything - and the vendors don’t have to be persuaded to explain, with a playful air and mischievous smile, the advantages of each oil. But, the market is principally known for the area dedicated to natural remedies and "magic potions". Notable areas of the market are those devoted to fruit and vegetables, the area of dried fish and shrimp, the area where the indigenous handicrafts are found, originating from the interior of the state or from Marajó Island, as well as the area of meals and juices – exotic açai juice, for example.
That suggestion is fully justified: the market is a place that encapsulates the soul of the Amazon region.
Talk to any local inhabitant about what to do in Belém and they will recommend a visit to the market. It is located close to the Presépio Fort and a visit must be a priority. Ver-o-Peso market is certainly one of the most iconic locations of the city of Belém.
