RIO DE JANEIRO- "THE MARVELOUS CITY"
Identified as the "Marvelous City" Rio de Janeiro boasts attractions that have rendered the city worldwide fame. Who has never heard about Carnival in Rio, the most wonderful well-known celebration in the world? Or who has never heard about the Sugar Loaf Mountain and the statue of Christ Redeemer that majestically overlooks gorgeous Rio de Janeiro?
The city was the Brazilian capital right until 1960 -- when Brasilia, the present capital, was inaugurated. Because it was the capital, concentrating much power, the city's architectonic traces include luxurious and imposing constructions -- that sheltered the nobility along with some other essential personages of those times.
Given that the city's climate is warm and enjoyable through the year, Rio does not depend on seasons to bring in visitors. Its attractions can easily be appreciated any time of the year.
Rio de Janeiro has always been a favorite destination for gays, and in 2009, the city is elected the best LGBT destination in the world. In 2010, the same city also was elected the sexiest city of the world according to the U.S. Logo channel and TripOutGayTravel.
Top 5 things to see/do in Rio:
1. Take in the views from Corcovado and Sugar Loaf- both are incredible vantage points for orienting yourself with Rio. Take the train ride up through Cosme Velho to get to Corcovado and soak up the sights. Then head over to Sugarloaf where you will board a cable car at Praia Vermelha that will take you to the top.
2. Explore the bohemian neighborhood of Santa Teresa- this unique neighborhood overlooking the city is a far cry from the beach scene in the Zona Sul. Looking much like it did when the Carmelite convent was founded here in the 18th century. Today it is home to many artists--both Brazilian and ex-pat-- who started setting up shop here in the 1960′s.
3. Spend a day on Ipanema Beach- stretch of beach from Leblon, through Ipanema and Copacabana to Leme is divided into sections, which are marked by numbered lifeguard 'postos'. Each section of this sunbathed catwalk has its own distinct characteristics. Here is where Rio Gay Beach located.
4. Shop for souvenirs at the Artisan Market- the Feira Hippie, at Praça General Osório -- Ipanema, is a tourists' favorite. This Sunday tradition began in the 1970s with a few stalls selling handicrafts. Since then it has grown to take up an entire plaza and feature all forms of artwork from jewelry to clothing and even furniture.
5. Escape the paparazzi and hear to Buzios- make like Brigitte Bardot and head up the coast to escape the bustle of the city. Today, unlike its status in the 60′s, Buzios is a hip, trendy spot where the rich and famous seek refuge. This beach town has become home to die-hard surfers and sun-worshipping hippies alike who have found their places along this seven-mile string of beaches.
