Rio de Janeiro travel guide  
Rio remains the cultural and tourist capital of Brazil. It is still at the forefront of the nation as far as fashion and pace are concerned, and should continue being so for years to come. Rio is jumping with things to see, such as museums housing, indigenous people, charming old neighborhoods, exotic parks and gardens, and unforgettable mountain views of the city. Oh, beaches, carnaval.
