Description

“It is not by chance that Brazilians and foreigners alike call it the Marvelous City. Rio de Janeiro's very name evokes fun, fashion, desire. The names of neighborhoods like Copacabana and Ipanema are synonymous with sensuality. This is a town about breathtaking natural scenery, revealing dress habits and quite the knack for celebration.
Brazil's capital city until 1960, today, with huge oil and gas finds in its coastal waters, the area is rapidly becoming the country's energy capital, attracting businesses from shipbuilding to high-tech research, with investments shooting up faster than in any other state.
Deep pockets aren't needed to experience the city's sultry flavor. The beaches are unforgettable, from Ipanema, where the "beautiful people" traditionally congregate in their fashionable swimsuits, to rowdy Copacabana and Barra da Tijuca, a surfer's paradise.
Rio is distinctly wilder; the city sweats exuberance and verve, verging on boiling point in the summer.
