About Rio de Janeiro

Rio de Janeiro brer seg ut mellom fjellene og havet, en by av berømte strender, granitttopper, sambarytmer og et verdenskjent karneval.

Kristusstatuen står med åpne armer på toppen av Corcovado og ser ned på byen, og taubaner klatrer opp på Sukkertoppen for utsikt over Guanabarabukta. Nedenfor er strendene Copacabana og Ipanema scenen for hverdagslivet, med volleyball, kiosker og den bølgemønstrede promenaden, mens Leblon og Arpoador forlenger stripen.

Top-ranked sights in Rio de Janeiro: Christ the Redeemer Statue (Cristo Redentor), Sugarloaf Mountain (Pao de Açúcar), Selarón Steps (Escadaria Selarón).
