Lonely Planet review for Museu de Folclórico Edson Carneiro
Next door to the Palácio do Catete, this museum provides an excellent introduction to Brazilian folk art. Its collection includes Candomblé costumes, ceramic figurines and religious costumes used in festivals, though our favorite exhibits are the delightful, mechanized scenes (the circus, bull riders, samba show, rubber tree workers).
