Attractive Brazilians Have Placed Rio De Janeiro Holiday Vacations On The Tourist Radar

By Marcela Borges


Nutty costumes, thong bikinis, sweet lime cocktails, beaches, mountains and sexy Brazilians hanging out through the night are illustrations that have put a Rio de Janeiro holiday vacation on the tourism radar. However with popularity, comes fortune and Rio's wow aspect now carries an increasing price level.

Rio is covered with a coastline of beaches, with vistas that range between tanned and exquisite to god awful prune and saggy. Copacabana beach grew to become renowned in the '50s, which still draws the nostalgia masses from that period. Ipanema beach is much easier on the eyes. At posto 9, make-you-jealous guys kick around soccer balls while smoking hot girls sip from coconuts. If Ipanema is just too jampacked, embark to the 11 mile beach in Barra da Tijuca where you'll find an equally pretty variety of cariocas at Pepe.

You don't need to abandon the city for a escape from Rio's bustle. Jardim Botanico, located merely across the lagoa from Ipanema, is a rich, tranquil garden get away for around $3. More bold alternatives exist a little further away in Tijuca National Park, the largest urban forest in the world which you could stroll endless hiking trails through waterfalls, caves and mountain peaks while unique birds and monkeys taunt you from above, all for free.

While rio de janeiro hotels are often very pricey and hostels rather mucky and not very relaxed, numerous vacationers like to opt for rio flats. While there is rio penthouses for those that desire luxury, there is one and two bedroom rio de janeiro flats to rent in both ipanema and copacabana that may be priced just right.

As you may have heard from City of God, life within these shanty towns isn't all peaches and sunshine. However passing up the favelas during your stay in Rio gives you a sheltered look of the city that fails to take into account one-fifth of Brazil's populace. Get the total picture by passing time down in genuine poverty. Whilst a lone day walk via a favela is not going to land you in a stack of gasoline-soaked tires, a guide is useful to understand some background and avoid losing your way within the concrete jungle.
