Rio de Janeiro is the capital of the state bearing the same name which is located in the south-east of the country. Situated in a strategic position on the Atlantic Ocean with the Serra da Carioca mountain range at the back.
"Cidade Maravilhosa", wonderful city, recites an old carioca song, and maybe this is the most suitable definition for Rio de Janeiro, incredible tropical metropolis, majestically lying on the many morros -high hills- that dominate the splendid Guanabara Bay. The city has an indefinable charm, with its wonderful, huge and multicoloured beaches that have exotic and charming names: Copacabana, Ipanema, Barra da Tijuca... An ecological metropolis set between the seaside and a rich, exuberant nature, Rio disposes of the biggest urban forest in the world. It is also a postcard city, whose uncountable "morros", which can mostly be reached either walking/trekking, or by means of real mountain climbing, have one thing in common: breathtaking panoramas and sights! Cultural, natural capital and gateway to Brazil, Rio is also the capital of parties and nightlife, with hectic and inviting nights, traditional music and contagious rhythm and the well-know cheerfulness of its inhabitants, the "cariocas". Their liveliness is ready to break out at any time and in any place, in parties, in markets, in the streets and on the beaches.
