Old photos of Brazilian cities that are a trip back in time

The popularization of the Internet and, more recently, of social networks, has allowed many people to take old photos out of their closets — sometimes very old ones! — and share them with the world.

Thanks to initiatives like these, we can see how, for example, Brazilian cities were 50 or even 100 years ago.

O incredible.club shows, in this post, super curious photos of the main Brazilian cities taken several decades ago. How about traveling to the time when people swam in the Tietê River, in São Paulo, or held car races in the streets of Rio de Janeiro? Or see what Brasilia was like before it was completed and remember the day it snowed in Curitiba?
