What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors find the Palácio da Redenção a beautiful and historically significant building, now housing the Museu da História da Paraíba. While the museum offers free entry and valuable exhibits, some reviews mention a lack of information or guides on-site, and challenges with parking and access due to its central location.
"Fui atraída pelas fotos dos visitantes do Google , mas não me deixaram entrar. Não sei como as pessoas das fotos daqui entraram porque o segurança disse que não era aberto a visitação e ainda falou que não era permitido entrar de bermuda."
Beatriz Estrella
"Lindíssimo prédio, bem conservado, representativo da administração política do Estado"
Ery Lopes
"Sendo a sede do governo do estado, o prédio - histórico, diga-se de passagem - deveria receber melhorias para sua conservação.
João Pessoa tem belos e históricos para visitação mas, infelizmente, estão em mal estado de conservação.
Estas cidades deveriam perceber que nem só de praia vive o turismo."
