Gramado is a small touristic town to the southeast of Caxias do Sul and east of Nova Petrópolis in the southern Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul (view map). This mountainous and Germanesque region is known as the Serra Gaúcha. The majority of Gramado's inhabitants are German-Brazilians. Gramado is one of the towns along the scenic route known as Rota Romântica. The town is also part of the scenic Região das Hortênsias
route.
Gramado hosts the Festival de Gramado, a major South American film festival and Gramado's most important event. Gramado is also known by hydrangeas blossoming in late spring. Another key event in Gramado is Natal Luz
, when Gramado is decked out in lights and wreathes made of recycled plastic bottles. Though this may sound odd, the result is very attractive decorations that don't require any water. Natal Luz sports high levels of community involvement, as majority of decorative devices are crafted by local residents in a voluntary job.
