Teresópolis is a city in Rio de Janeiro (state), at 900 meters above sea level. It is one of the most charming cities in the region, with relatively cold weather and beautiful mountains. Less rich than her cousin Petrópolis, Teresópolis is the ideal point of departure for the magnificent Serra dos Orgãos National Park.

Well known for housing the headquarters of the Brazilian Football. The Granja Comary is the local concentration of the selection, and training center for other categories sponsored by the Brazilian Football Confederation. The seat has more than 150 thousand square meters of green area, divided into five fields, infrastructure to serve the athletes and a modern training center. The Granja also attracts tourists through the beautiful landscape composed by Lake Comary (artificial), from whose shores can be seen the peaks of the Serra dos Órgaos mountains, including the Finger of God.
