Rio de Janeiro is quite a dangerous city actually, some parts worse than others. Unless you want to go to Mardi Gras (which technically Mardi Gras is everywhere in Brazil, just some prefer it here) or see the Statue of Christ. Or there is an area about an hour away called Cabo Frio which is beautiful, then I would say there are other parts of Brazil that I enjoy more. I think going to Manaus to enter into the Amazon or going to see Iguassu Falls is beautiful even thought that is really a stay one night sorta thing and I enjoyed Salvador. Either way, good and bad aspects in many cities, just be very careful there. Sao Paulo is actually more dangerous though than Rio, only people that go there aren't tourists they are normally on Business.

With its white sandy beaches, rising mountains and picturesque harbour, it's no wonder that Rio de Janeiro is recognized as the "cidade maravilhosa", or marvellous city and with hotelbye you are able to take the chance and visit this phenomenal city. Rio de Janeiro is experiencing the South Atlantic shore and is the second-largest town in Brazil. That town is blessed with one of the very beautiful organic controls for a metropolis in the world. The impressive landscape is one of the reasons that visitors decided Rio de Janeiro. Throughout carnival season, a festival that everyone else noticed, the streets load with audio and ornately costumed performers attracting tourists from all over the globe.

Rio has the best and the worse. The aerial view of Rio, believe me, it's one of the most beautiful of the world. Safety is the big challenge in Rio. You should watch the way locals dress and dress the same, get a Flamengo t-shirt, shorts and go. Then, meet locals and you'll have the time of your life. Avoid gringo attitude.

I live in Rio, too. The one that said that here, in Rio, you may find the worst and the best was pretty right. The wiew of the city from the sky is simply astonishing. I don't live downtown, but my neighborhood is a good and calm place to live.
I love my work. My co-workers are very nice and so are my friends. People in general are nice. I'll neve feel lonely here. But poverty is a big problem here. Increasing violence has been freaking me out. It's a shame my city's tourning out to be like this.

I was born in Rio, and in my opinion it is (or used to be) the most beautiful city in the world, but I have to say I'm glad I don't live there anymore. The city is dirty, the traffic is horrible, you can't walk the streets safely, crime and drug traffic is everywhere, the beaches are polluted and crowded. It's sad to see what decades of neglect and corrupt governments have done to the city.

nicely, Rio is the biggest, Cork is the oldest, and NYC has the main diversions... so... what standards do you opt for those cities judged by utilising? Cork is in eire, so ingesting has been taken to an artwork kind there, so it quite is the appropriate in my e book. yet I additionally like traveling museums, previous church homes, and castles, so what many human beings think of of as detractors with regard to the city are plusses in my own column. NYC is the media center for the international, with greater television studios and community headquarters consistent with sq. mile than the different place on the earth. If it quite is on the small demonstrate, or on the radio, it become touched and formed here in some small way. it quite is a city with a exceptional form of bling and glamor because of the fact of it, too. yet there is greater financial disparity here than in Cork, with a of course defined line between those able to affording the 0.33 priciest genuine sources marketplace interior the u . s . a ., and people who can not. Rio is between the biggest cities interior the international, and between the main distinctive, with an extremely prosperous minority dwelling it up mutually as the overpowering majority stay in comparable squalor. The Brazilian government is cracking down heavily on the severe proportion of criminal interest in guidance for the imminent Olympic video games, and the inhabitants isn't taking kindly to it. in simple terms final month, between the better gangs there shot down a police helicopter... i could in basic terms bypass there if i become going to be linked to the very prosperous human beings, and ought to have self assurance of their risk-free practices human beings to conceal me besides.

Great city, The beaches are amazing copacobana or ipanima are definitely worth a visit. Also sugar loaf mountain and the statue of christ are worthwhile. You just have to watch out for the crime, especially on the beaches.
