Rua Gonçalo de Carvalho is a street located in the neighborhood Independence of the city of Porto Alegre , the state capital of Brazil ’s Rio Grande do Sul . Verge trees of the genus tipuana , became internationally known after a campaign for its preservation, which spread by internet and took the route to be dubbed “the most beautiful street in the world” and be considered “ environmental heritage ”by the city.
