Remarkable Rio

Rio de Janeiro, the second largest city of Brazil is home to about 6.3 million people. This metropolitan has a large GDP, a strong economy and plenty of factors to give it the world heritage site title. Flights to Rio de Janeiro, also known simply as Rio, bring 15 million passengers a year to the city for the purpose of profits and pleasure.

The glorious Sugar Loaf Mountains are an eye-catcher. Take a trolley up the 390-foot summit and lose track of time! The stunning views of the city, surrounding jungles, beaches and tropical islands that seem to dot the city’s coast are truly mesmerizing! Click photos or become a part of them....this is sure to be one heck of a fantastic tour across the plateaus. The attraction is also known for its overwhelming views during sunset. Cheap tickets to Rio de Janeiro’s summit come with the pre-arranged travel packages, so you might want to pay heed to the advertisements and promotional websites.

Take the trolley to the top of Corcovado Hill and be awe-struck by the enormous Christ Redeemer statue. The site gives you a breathtaking view of the surroundings, and its outstanding location gives you a full 360 degree of the city! After the sunset, the statue lights up, and this view is priceless! You may not get cheap airline flights, but the tour to this beauty is minimal with no visiting charges, except for the trolley service.

One can head to the Teatro Municipal for a lavishing experience of the 1900’s theatrical monument. The exquisite gilded mirrors, murals, glittering chandeliers in the ballroom, statues and plenty of other minute details are available to enhance your trip to this beautiful city. With the option of taking a tour or arranging tix, go for the latter. Book ahead of your visit and get cheap tickets.

The city’s Botanical Garden is from the era of the royal family. Located with a fresh stream of water cascading down the channels, the plants and striking gardens are ever blooming. Unlike the main city, this estate has a European touch with bamboo stands, tall palm trees and many fascinating creatures, such as toucans and monkeys, to accompany you in this intriguing setup. Besides that, look up for the special bear fruit, the regional specialty. Take a break from your trip and relax here.

To end the trip, make a visit to the Ilha Grande, a magnificent island south of the city. Sun bathe at the beaches or take an excursion to the coasts...this is Brazil’s paradise! Those running short of time can avail speed boats. Along with its phenomenal beauty, the island is known for its delightful cuisines and fancy shopping chains. Head back home with a precious souvenir.
