| If you are thinking about going to Brazil, I think you | | | | to travel by air to 5 major brazilian cities. My |
| are a very smart person. Brazil is an exciting country | | | | suggestion goes as follows: |
| with plenty to see and do and a very warm people | | | | Start with Rio because it's the major hub but don't |
| who love to receive and share with whomever is | | | | spend too much time there. |
| receptive enough to make friends with them.I would | | | | Just enjoy the beauty of it for a few days, take a |
| start by Rio of course. Rio is a very big city and just | | | | few of the escorted jeep tours |
| like any other city | | | | around the forests of Rio, visit Corcovado and |
| around the world, you have to be careful. Rio has | | | | Sugar Loaf, go to the beach and then |
| many wonderful places that are | | | | move on. Next stop, Salvador. This is one of the |
| sure to take the breath away. Corcovado, Sugar | | | | coolest places you are going to |
| Loaf, The Vista Chinesa, Tijuca | | | | be at in the world. It's a mixture of New Orleans, |
| Forest and so on and so forth. The beaches in Rio | | | | Kenya, Jamaica and Paradise beaches, |
| are an experience for the newcomer. | | | | all with the Brazilian "tempero" a seasoning that only |
| In Ipanema beach, every day when the sun goes | | | | in Brazil you will find.In Salvador, you will see Capoeira |
| down, everyone watches in silence and | | | | rodas, music in the streets and art and life |
| finally clap in awe of the beauty of the scenery. The | | | | everwhere. |
| best place to go to the beach | | | | It's a must. Since you are already in Bahia, o Morro |
| in Rio depends on what kind of person you are.If | | | | de Sao Paulo is not too far and |
| you are young and want to mingle and see | | | | neither is Trancoso, these are classical beaches |
| interesting brazilian youth exuding their | | | | where you need not worry about shoes. |
| charm and unbelievably beautiful bodies, go to Posto | | | | It's all sandy and it doesn't cost much to stay there |
| 9 in Ipanema, where they play | | | | either. You will experience a |
| footvolley all day, the boys and girls are golden and | | | | level of warmth and service that might make you |
| there's everything you could | | | | want to forget the States and move there. |
| possibly want on a beach day for you to enjoy. | | | | Visit both and then move on.So, with 4 more air |
| Vendors walking by selling everything | | | | tickets to spend, I'd do the following: |
| from popsicles to hammocks and sun glasses to | | | | Go to the Amazon and take a jungle tour in Manaus. |
| shrimp cabobs. The service is nice. | | | | There is no reason not to see the |
| Now, if you are a family and you are looking to | | | | most beautiful rainforest in Brazil and the world and |
| really just enjoy the sun and beach | | | | it will enrich your life just |
| on a weekday (weekdays are much better at the | | | | to have been there and be able to tell the |
| beach in Rio), then I suggest you | | | | stories.Next, a stop in Minas to visit the old town of |
| try the Barra da Tijuca beach. It is so vast it never | | | | Ouro Preto which seems like the entire |
| really seems to be that full | | | | town was sculpted by an artist and it's fun and |
| (except on Sundays when the so called 'suburbanos' | | | | sweet. Not very dangerous either. |
| are there). But even then it's nice.Personally, I like the | | | | Relax here and take the time to enjoy the best |
| Botanical Gardens on Sundays. It's quiet and nice and | | | | brazilian cuisine you will find |
| you can | | | | in the entire country of Brazil.After this, on your |
| see a lot of very cool things, feed the fish and | | | | way back to Rio, go visit Buzios and make sure you |
| pelicans on the pond and rest | | | | get souvenirs |
| under a Pau Brasil tree. The beach is way too full to | | | | there and go walk on rua das Pedras. It's classy and |
| be nice on the weekends. | | | | supposedly Brigitte Bardot |
| Or to take a nice hike up the many hidden waterfalls | | | | (the French actress) used to walk around topless |
| that make you forget entirely | | | | there.That's it for today. Please be sure to visit |
| that you are right in one of the biggest cities in the | | | | for more Brazilian Travel, Tourism in Brazil, Brazilian |
