RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL

City: Rio de Janeiro
Country: Brazil

Rio de Janeiro - or River of January in Portuguese to the locals - lies in southeastern Brazil. Boasting over 10 million residents, Rio trails Sao Paulo in size but makes up for it in tourists. The city is widely perceived as one of the most beautiful in the world, in no small part thanks to the hotel-lined, tourist-packed beaches Copacabana and Ipanema. To those who have only seen pictures of the city though, Rio is recognized instantly by the giant statue of Jesus (Christ the Redeemer, or Cristo Redentor), perched on the Corcovado mountain. The city is also reknowned for its annual Carnival celebration.

Rio was the country's capital until 1960, when Brasília took its place.

Language(s): Portuguese
