About Rio de Janeiro

O Rio de Janeiro estende-se entre montanhas e oceano: praias famosas, picos de granito, ritmos de samba e um carnaval conhecido em todo o mundo.

O Cristo Redentor ergue-se de braços abertos no cimo do Corcovado, a olhar a cidade lá do alto, e os teleféricos sobem ao Pão de Açúcar para vistas sobre a Baía de Guanabara. Em baixo, as praias de Copacabana e Ipanema são o palco da vida diária, com voleibol, quiosques e o passeio de desenho ondulado, enquanto o Leblon e o Arpoador prolongam a faixa.

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