Trindade, Rio de Janeiro

Trindade (Portuguese for trinity) is a bairro in the Municipality of Paraty, located at the south-western tip of the federal state of Rio de Janeiro of Brazil, right on the border to São Paulo.

Today, it is largely made up of craft shops and restaurants catering to tourists.

Part of Trindade belongs to the Serra da Bocaina National Park and is protected by the Icmbio.

At the same time, Agência de Desarollo de Latino América (ADELA), a multinational based in Luxembourg, invested in the fishing village to create a resort and a luxury condo, which led to conflicts with the native population.
