The currency used in Curitiba is the Brazilian Real. The city is also famous for its cultural attractions, including museums, theaters, and art galleries.

The best time to visit Curitiba is during the spring months of September to November when the weather is mild and the city is in full bloom. Summer (December to February) can be hot and humid, while winter (June to August) can be cold and rainy. It is advisable to avoid visiting during the rainy season from December to February.

Curitiba has an efficient public transportation system, including buses and a unique bus rapid transit system known as the 'Linha Turismo' that takes visitors to major attractions.

Traveller tips
Don't forget to visit the Botanical Garden of Curitiba, a stunning glass greenhouse surrounded by gardens. Try the local dish 'Barreado', a slow-cooked beef stew served with rice and banana.

Be cautious of pickpockets in crowded tourist areas.
