This park in southern Brazil has a beautiful crater lake and odd rock formations (some are 650 ft/200 m long and 1,970 ft/600 m wide) that—with the help of your imagination and a guide—appear to be carved in the shapes of people, animals and objects. An elevator takes you down inside the crater. This intriguing park is best seen as a day trip from Curitiba. 480 mi/770 km southwest of Rio de Janeiro.
