Walk across the Buarque de Macedo Bridge along Av. Rio Branco from Recife Antigo to Santo Antônio. You’ll find yourself in Praça da República, originally part of the estate of a Dutch nobleman. Later it became known as the “Field of Honor” to pay homage to scores of patriots who were killed here during the drive to form a republic. The buildings around the plaza were built in the 19th and 20th centuries and include the Teatro Santa Isabel (Theater) built in 1850, Palácio do Governo (Government Palace) built in 1841, and the Beaux Arts Palácio da Justiça (Court House) built in 1930.
