THE GIRL FROM IPANEMA
When I think of Rio de Janeiro, my mind always wanders to the song, “The Girl From Ipanema.”
To listen to a classic Sinatra and Jobim duet of this marvelous song, copy and paste:

Popular myth has it that it was inspired by Hélo…

Looking for a place to go have fun at night in Rio?
Lapa is the place you're looking for! Lapa is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Rio, it has tradition, it's beautiful, it's dirty.
It is a bohemian place since the early 1900's. Samba was born here around 1910, Chorinho was born here too. M…

I wanted to enjoy the “samba” (a popular and characteristic brazillian rhythm) down with the locals, at samba schools in the suburbs (where they say it started), but I had heard from some people that I shouldn’t go by myself in that direction, so once I heard from a friend that Brazil Expediti…

Ok, when talking about Rio, everybody has something to say about Christ the Redeemer. It's such a cliche! But you know what? It's the best cliche that I've seen my life.
The view of Rio from the top is absolutely one of the most beutiful thing I've ever seen in my life (conditions: sunny, non-cl…

Lagoa lake is a vivid place in the Rio map, but usually visitors miss it. It has many interesting features. There's a road biking around the lake, it is a great road if you are a fan of bicycle.
The lake has a great view from every side. There are many facilities for sport activities like skating…

There's lake just behind the Ipanema beach namely Lagoa Lake. It is a great place but it is usually ignored as people go toward the opposite direction to the beach.
Just behind the lake, there's a park over the hills. Going up in the park for 45 min, you can reach the top of the hill where you ca…

Santa Teresa, in my opinion, is the best neighborhood in Rio (with Lapa). It's really old and the most charming and fun thing to do there it take a ride in the old train around there.
Take the subway to Carioca station and it will be easy to find the train station. It costs only BRL 0.75. It lea…

As a visitor to Rio de Janeiro, you'll surely got to Sugar Loaf as it provides a great sightseeing, a wonderful landscape of the city and also Copacabana beach.
But ... my suggestion is to go there at evening time, as you can be there both in the light and darkness. Then you should have chance to…

By all means go at night or late in the evening. There is far less people, the views are breathtaking and you can have your very own bench to sit on and sip your caipirinha. If you visited Cristo Redendor during the day, you'd have seen the magnificent coastline in the light and the flicker of the n…

A little out of the way but worth a visit. Clean blue water. White sand beach. Great for surfing, body boarding, and windsurfing.
The whole area is clean and noticeably upper class. There is a giant shopping mall and, surprisingly, even a WalMart (which I found a bit disconcerting).
I drove …

Rio's Post Card. You must go up there to see the Statue and to have a view from the whole Rio de Janeiro city. The view is wonderful. You should go while visiting Rio de Janeiro.
