7Rua Goncalo de Carvalho, Porto Alegre, Brazil

Located in the middle of Porto Alegre, the busy metropolis’s stunning avenue is often mentioned as an example of one of the planet’s most spectacular streets. Featuring tipuana trees dating back to the 30s, the street forms a verdant green pathway smack in the middle of a concrete jungle. An impending mall construction threatened to rock the natural beauty of the street, when local residents took matters in their hand and approached the local mayor for action. The street today is designated a cultural, natural and historical heritage that remains untouched by development.
