Germânia Park
This park differs from others by having little tree cover and by closing at night. It does have some sports amenities though. Popular with locals on weekend afternoons. The park is named as a dedication to German immigrants.
Moinhos de Vento Park
Known by locals as Parcão, this is a pleasant park with a neat lake and jogging runways.
Farroupilha Park
Known by locals as Redenção (Redemption), where is found the Araujo Viana Auditorium, which has hosted several political acts and music concerts. Also on Sundays, an antique fair happens in a side street and is called by locals as Brique da Redenção.
Santuário Nossa Senhora Mãe de Deus
A beautiful church almost unknown by most porto-alegrenses. It is placed in a great location, with nice views of Porto Alegre and nearby cities landscapes. Built in 1992, this church is at the top of a hill with 283 meters (928 feet) of altitude, with a modern architecture and engineering, designed to support the strong winds of the location. It is somewhat difficult to get to this place, because a cab ride from downtown would be pricey. However, if you rent a car in Porto Alegre, it's worth trying.
Brazilian Navy Park
Known simply as Marinha, a linear park with a skateboarding rink, several sports and public fitness amenities, and also several modern art sculptures from Mercosur artists. Good for a bit of nature during the day. Popular on weekend late afternoons.
