Into Aracaju
The SE-100 continues toward the city, joining the Rodovia Seixas Dória and Edilson Távora highways. The mid-afternoon approach to the Teleférico de Aracajú, on the Morro do Urubu, leads to the city's only remaining fragment of urban Mata Atlântica. The cable car, inaugurated in 2006, climbs to a mirante in about 25 minutes, opening onto the Rio Sergipe meeting the Atlantic, the Ponte Construtor João Alves, and the planned city below. It runs Wednesday to Sunday, 9:00–17:00; the free zoológico at the base houses lion, macaw, and quati among its 400-plus species.
