Sights of Belem: The Governor's Mansion
I was surprised to find two Victorian mansions in the heart of Belem.
This one--which was built by a former governor of the state and which has been appropriately dubbed "The Governor's Mansion"--was open to the public.
They don't make iron gates like they used to!
A little Victorian gazebo...
...and an outdoor garden.
An old train car...
Which now serves as an ice-cream parlor.
I had a talk with the former owner.
It was rather one-sided.
