Also for its attractions such as: the Corcovado, SugarLoaf Mountain, Maracanã Stadium, Tijuca Forest, which is the largest urban replanted forest in the world, as well as the Carnival.

It’s not possible to talk about Carnival, one of the most famous events in the world, without highlighting its essence which is the Samba, a musical genre and dance style that originated in Rio in the early 20th century, and that has become a symbol of the Brazilian Cultural Identity, attracting tourists from all over the world as well as Brazilians and residents of the Marvelous City.
