About:
The Teleférico do Alemão is a 3.5km, 6-station urban gondola in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. First opened in 2011, the fully integrated system provides favela residents with a direct connection to the city’s urban rail network.
Every Thursday, the Gondola Project team will select stunning captures of CPT lines. We hope this will continue to bring more attention to the technology and provide visually impactful examples of cable car systems worldwide. If you’d like to submit or nominate a picture for our “Photo of the Week”, we’d love to hear from you. Leave a comment below or send us an email at gondola@creativeurbanprojects.com.
