[4][5] The district center comprises the neighborhoods Águas Negras, Agulha, Campina de Icoaraci, Cruzeiro, Maracacuera, Paracuri, Parque Guajará, Xiteua, Recanto Verde, COHAB, Ponta Grossa, Pratinha, and several residential areas.

Another economic hub of the district is the open-air market of Oito de Maio, one of the busiest in Belém and the most frequented in Icoaraci, located in the Campina neighborhood.

[9] However, Icoaraci really stands out as an important ceramic handicraft center, installed in the Paracuri neighborhood, where replicas of typical vessels from ancient indigenous nations, mainly Marajoara and Tapajonic, are produced from pieces catalogued by the Paraense Emílio Goeldi Museum.

Tourism is strong in Vila Sorriso, with the exhibition of indigenous ceramics in São Sebastião Square, right on the shore bathed by Guajará Bay, where the visitor is well served by a gastronomic pole composed of typical Pará cuisine (tacacá, maniçoba, pato-no-tucupi), with emphasis on the caldeirada with Amazon river fruits that can be found in the restaurants and kiosks surrounding Cruzeiro Beach.

Icoaraci carries the history of the capital of Pará and, until today, is the right spot for tourists who are looking for a pleasant place to relax in contact with nature, in a bucolic charm.
