In this video we will cover some of this places: Beginning 03:32 City Center Av Carlos de Carvalho Galera Asa Rua XV 15:05 Bigorrilho Praca Espana Batel Soho History of Bigorrilho: At the end of the 19th century, colonies of Polish, German and Ukrainian immigrants settled in the lands of the region. There is no concrete record of how his name came about, as there are several different hypotheses. One of the differentials of the neighborhood is the Praça da Ukraine, the big meeting point of Bigorrilho and which hosts fairs every Wednesday and Friday. 31:46 City Center (Centro towards Batel) Shopping Omar Brigadeiro Franco Shopping Crystal 52:17 Mercado Municipal (Municipal Market) History of Curitiba: On March 29, 1693, the captain-settler Matheus Martins Leme, when crowning the "appeals for peace, quiet and the common good of the people", promoted the first election for the City Council and the installation of the Village, as required by the Portuguese. The Vila de Nossa Senhora da Luz dos Pinhais was founded, later Curitiba. The change in the name of the village and the routine of the village came in 1721, with the visit of Raphael Pires Pardinho, today the name of a square in the city. He was probably the first authority to be concerned with the city's environment, starting a tradition for which Curitiba is now internationally recognized. At that time, the ombudsman ordered the inhabitants to take certain precautions with nature. The cutting of trees, for example, could only be done in limited areas. And the residents were obliged to clean the Ribeiro (today Rio Belém), in order to avoid the bathing in front of the mother church. The ombudsman Pardinho also established that the houses could not be built without authorization from the Chamber and should be covered with tiles. The streets that had already started would have to be continued so that the village could grow evenly. Forgotten by the rulers of the Captaincy of São Paulo, Curitiba went through a period of extreme poverty. Prosperity would only come from 1812, with tropeirismo. Strategic point on the road from Viamão to São Paulo and Minas Gerais, the town saw trade grow with the passage of the tropeiros. The rent of farms for the winterers transferred the inhabitants of the countryside to the village. Shops, warehouses and business offices linked to the transport of livestock emerged. Along with development, in 1853 the emancipation of Paraná was achieved. Curitiba became capital, owner of its destiny. Curitiba is a word of Guarani origin: kur yt yba means "large number of pines, pinewood", in the language of the Amerindians, the first inhabitants of the territory. In the early days of human occupation, the lands where Curitiba is today had a large amount of Araucaria angustifolia, the Paraná pine. The adult tree is shaped like a cup. Its seed is the pine nut, a source of protein and food of great consumption, in natura or as an ingredient of the regional cuisine of Paraná. The pine nut served as food for a bird also found in large quantities at the beginning of the occupation of the territory: the blue jackdaw (Cyanocorax caeruleus). With a bluish body and a black head, the blue jackdaw, according to a legend, harvested the pinion with its beak and buried it in the soil for later consumption. From these buried pine nuts, new pine trees were born.
