Rio de Janeiro

‘A Cidade Maravilhosa’ - the marvellous city. This is without doubt one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Even its own vastness is dwarfed by the dramatic landscape in which it is set. Built on a 60 km beach front, Rio has a population of 12 million, and is split into 156 districts.


 

The Rio Carnival

The Carnival in Rio de Janeiro will take place between Sat 21st Feb and Tue 24th Feb 2009. The parade of the Samba Schools takes place on the Sunday and Monday evenings. Don’t forget the carnivals in Salvador and Recife which are equally spectacular.
