Rio de Janeiro is one of the most iconic cities in the world, famous for its extraordinary natural beauty and vibrant spirit. Nestled between the mountains and the ocean, it offers breathtaking views such as Christ the Redeemer, which embraces the city from the top of Corcovado, and the spectacular beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema. The city is a mix of culture, music and celebration, with the famous Carnival that transforms Rio into an explosion of colour, sound and dance. Among its neighbourhoods, Lapa and Santa Teresa retain a bohemian soul, while gardens and urban forests such as Tijuca Park offer a quiet corner in the heart of the metropolis.
