Rio de Janeiro
Zuckerhut (Rio)Rio is after São Paulo the largest city in Brazil, but with much more green areas and lovely places. On the most famous view points, the Sugarloaf Mountain and Christ the Redeemer statue you have a great view over Rio and the Copaccabana. The trip to the statue with a cog railway (made in Switzerland) takes you back in time and is an experience you don't forget.

The ideas you have as European from Brazil you'll find most of it at the Copaccabana. The beach is full of life and in the evening you see people jogging or doing other kinds of sports, you see teams playing soccer or beach ball - no wonder Brazil is so good in these sports.
