The Palácio da Bolsa (Stock Exchange Palace) is a Neoclassical building built in the 19th century by the city's Commercial Association (Associação Comercial)
The interior of the Palace, only finished in 1910, was magnificently decorated by several artists.
Just past the entrance is the glass-domed Pátio das Nações (Hall of Nations), where the exchange once operated. But this pales in comparison with rooms deeper inside; to visit these, join one of the half-hour guided tours, which set off every 30 minutes.
The highlight is a stupendous ballroom called the Salão Árabe (Arabian Hall), with stucco walls that have been teased into complex Moorish designs, then gilded with some 18kg of gold.
