General Information:Rio de Janeiro is the focus of the travel industry in Latin America and unique in terms of its natural beauty, with the richness of its history and the contagious fun of its residents.
The visitor seeking a resort destination which also provides the sophisticated infra-structure of a modern city will find everything he requires in Rio de Janeiro. Rio is a city of contrasts: the colonial architecture provides a reminder of the past, striking modern buildings provide a glimpse into the future. Two landmarks, true postcard images, are known the world over: the Statue of Christ the Redeemer and the Sugar Loaf. Rio de Janeiro, as a travel destination, is not seasonally sensitive, and its attractions can be enjoyed all year long.Visitors always discover what the residents know and are proud of: there’s always something new happening in Rio exhibitions, dance and music shows and sporting events.
Christ the Redeemer-Arms wide open to the world More than a postcard, the statue of Christ has been elected “The Wonder of Rio”. From its location at the top of the 710 meters high Corcovado Mountain, the 38-meter statue is the image of the faith and friendliness of cariocas. The monument has a mechanized access, with panoramic elevators and escalators. Now it is no longer necessary to climb up the 220 steps to the image. Each of the three panoramic elevators holds 14 people. The access area caters for visitors who come by car as well as for those who use the train of the Corcovado Railway. The enjoyment begins there since the 31-meter tower offers the first view of the city.The belvedere offers marvelous view to the Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon, Copacabana, Ipanema and Leblon beaches and Maracanã Stadium.
Sugar Loaf - A ride on the cable car reveals unique landscapes .The Sugar Loaf cable car inaugurated on 27 October 1912 had its ninetieth anniversary in 2002. The first installed in Brazil and the third in the world, it is a major icon of Rio tourism and has become a trademark of the city. From the inauguration it transported 31 million tourists. In the nine decades during which it has operated, the cable car has received tourists from all over the world, including internationally known personalities, authorities and artist, such as Einstein in 1925. Considered to be one of the safest in the world by international agencies of passenger cable cars, it has never had an accident. The current lines have safety devices and the route is entirely programmed by electronic equipment that checks 47 safety items.
Copacabana Beach:It's almost impossible for visitors to Rio to resist the charm of the city's eighty kilometers of beaches. Framed by the wavy black and white mosaics of Avenue Atlântica, Copacabana is one of the main reasons for this fascination. In fact, there are two separate beaches here: Leme (one kilometer) and Copacabana, (just over three kilometers). A center of activity both night and day, the beach is lined with kiosks, a bicycle path and racks, lifeguard posts, public showers and bathrooms, hotels, bars and open-air restaurants. The Military Forts at each end are open to visitors, offering panoramic views.
