A kilometre or so over the headland from Playa Madera, past the Mirador with great views across the bay,
lies Playa La Ropa which takes its name-“Clothes Beach”- from silks washed up here when one of the nao de China(trading chips from China) was wrecked offshore.
Built on the Mirador da Boa Viagem,
on the edge of Niterói, the museum, with its futuristic facade, allows the visitor to enjoy panoramic views that are offered either outside the museum, from the patio, or inside the museum for a look by the ring of windows that divides this gigantic” concrete plate” into two tracks.
