Rio de Janeiro - A sightseeing tour through this city of dreams

Rio de Janeiro is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The Statue of Christ, the Sugarloaf Mountain and the dream beaches Copacabana and Ipanema are impressive sights. Good food, beautiful beaches, wonderful viewpoints and friendly people make a visit to an unforgettable experience. An absolute "must" is the climb by railway to the famous statue of Christ "Cristo Redentor" on Corcovado mountain with its beautiful view of the city. The visit over two stages with the cable car to the Sugar Loaf "Pão de Açúcar" belongs to every sightseeing. You are rewarded with a magnificent view of the sea side of this beautiful city. The Parque Nacional da Tijuca is the largest urban rainforest. You can enjoy a pleasant silence in this natural oasis near the everlasting noise of Rio. From the observation point of "Vista Chinesa" you have a beautiful view to the two landmarks of Rio, the statue of Christ and the Sugarloaf. The Botanical Garden "Jardim Botânico" was founded in 1809 by Dom João VI. It's a very beautiful tropical park. Rio is famous for its city beaches. Ipanema and Copacabana are arguing who is the best. But both beaches are incredibly beautiful. Until late in the evening the beaches and promenades are one of the most popular places to meet each other.
