Can it be a city that Located so unspeakably picturesque is about the most famous four and a half kilometers of the planet disposes sand and throwing the most infamous of all parties, actually take ill that she sometimes difficult at the Heinz PrĂ¼ll suffers syndrome *? At Rio seems much to be mad, but seems much more than it is. Rio is therefore really one carnival. The only what is in the carnival is to pretend to be someone who is not.
And so are the inhabitants of the favelas (slums) that celebrates the joy of life with samba and dance by as queens and kings of Rio to the "rich neighbors in the stands. Funding for the spectacle of the kings of the favelas - the millionaire drug lords. This is as much a fact as the existence of the carnival itself, because in fact it should it not possible - because there is no favelas. At least they can be found on any tourist map of Rio. Strange - according to the map this is a wooded hill, but it is surrounded by houses, markets and narrow streets. And what a view! At least as beautiful as the Sugar Loaf.
Only Cristo Redentor (Christ the Redeemer statue) is all about looks and kind down on his city - and, hopefully, sometimes over Maracana away. Brazil, football is art, this is pure enthusiasm. Brazil, which is also standing football before 6000 visitors (97 000 men in the synthesis Futebol Temple of Rio). And as there are still people like Herbert Prohaska, the adamantly on the myth of the Brazilian Magic football hold, so there are people who "Rio is the most beautiful city in the world," the stereotype expired. Both have some truth prey, but the reality is usually a little different and always lies somewhere in the middle. This principle applies, however, even for the "Rio is so dangerous," disciples. Just as the whole Prada, Dolce & Gabbana and Gucci clothes at the Copacabana are real, everyone outsider who enters a favela, the same shot (we are the living proof).
is primarily Rio just big city like so many others: There are lots to see and do even more. The People are friendly, colorful and busy. There are rich and those who try to be. Some areas we would rather avoid, while in other Omis their pooch for a walk and the greatest danger it is to rise to one of the legacies of the little darlings. The architecture ranges from flashy to ugly, from elegant to pseudo-sophisticated. The traffic flows slowly but in the underground's running smoothly.
... and only seen from the Corcovado from Rio is actually the most beautiful city in the world. There goes over there the subway!
