Panoramic Tower
Torre Panorâmica de Curitiba
A roughly 110-metre telecom tower with a viewing deck offering 360-degree views over the city and its park greenbelts.
The Panoramic Tower was originally a communications tower for the telecom company Telepar. It stands about 110 metres tall, and the observation deck sits about 95 metres up, giving a 360-degree view over the city's high-rises, the botanical garden and the distant coastal mountains. The deck includes orientation displays and a small exhibit on the history of the telephone. Admission is charged. You ride an elevator up and down, and queues are generally short. City sightseeing buses have a stop here. Visibility is poor on overcast or rainy days, so visit on a clear day.
