Parque da Cidade Sarah Kubitschek (Cruising)

The wooded areas of the Parque da Cidade Sarah Kubitschek, the huge central park beside the Congresso Nacional and hotel sectors, have long been a documented outdoor cruising (pegação) spot for men, mainly after dark. Brazil has marriage equality and the Federal District is comparatively tolerant, but this is a public park: be discreet, as public sex acts fall under Brazil's 'ato obsceno' law, keep valuables secure and stay aware of your surroundings at night.
