Brazil anyone?

Question

have you ever been to brazil? If so where?

tell me about ur experience.

Answer 1

Rio de Janeiro and the fame Amazon.

Let's start with Rio de Janeiro - its has the BEST beach section the Copacabana and Ipanema, its a playground where people strolling, playing volleyball or football in the beach although the beach itself is not good for swimming because of the big waves BUT the sands and all its activity compensate quite well. Rio used to be the playground of the rich and famous, not anymore....Another thing don't let your guard down its a big city & comes with high crime. Don't bring your wallet & expensive things on the beach. Enjoy Rio its the BEST!

Now lets go to the Amazon - it has the biggest unexplored jungle and river in the world, great for tough adventures and pure NATURAL. Although I have to admit its hot and humid all the time. Still theres no other place like the Amazon. Jungles, jungles, jungles.......

Answer 2

I live in Brazil! In Manaus (capital of the Amazon). I already went to Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Santa Catarina, Acre, Para. Well, it depends to where you come to.

In the Amazon the highlights is the jungle exploration, the crossing of waters, the amazon theater, boat exploring.

Sao Paulo is basically the mall of Brazil, it's a huge and great city, has a lot of stores and whole neighborhoods dedicated to shops and stuff. I'd recommend 25 de Marco and Braz. There is a very nice amusment park about 80 or 90 km from the capital, called Hopi Hari. It's could be compared to a theme park in the states, it's very fun.

Rio de Janeiro- a beautifull city, it has gorgeous beaches. For fun in the sand and people and partys, I'd have to say Ipanema and Copacabana, now if you want a great swimming area go to Buzios. (or to Santa Catarina).

But a VERY fun thing to do, is Pao de Acucar and visit our Cristo Redentor (kinda of like the statue of liberty).

Santa Catarina is also a gorgeous place. But not a lot of tourists go there, it has great beaches. And it has several very nice "colonial" towns. You know, those cute little cozy towns. Well.. those are the best places to visit I guess.. =)

Hope I helped somehow! If you want to know anything more you could just e-mail me and I'd be happy to help!

Have a nice weekend and God bless! =)

ps) if you visit Rio de Janeiro, go to Pao de Acucar! In my opinion, its the funnest thing there.
