Turn your sound on if you want to know the history of Escadaria Selarón!⁠ ⁠ “These iconic steps are the work of Jorge Selarón, a Chilean artist and traveller who wanted to renovate the old steps that ran along the front of his house. He started covering the steps with ceramic tiles that he’d painted in addition to tiles that he’d brought back from countries he’d travelled to. As his work became more known he would receive tiles as gifts from other travellers too.”⁠ ⁠ 🎥 @travelwithtolu // 📍Rio de Janiero, Brazil⁠ ⁠ Have you visited here before?
