In #RioDeJaneiro the Brazilian locals pile onto the beautiful beaches and express themselves through artwork, dance, and the ubiquitous Rio de Janeiro partying. Any Rio de Janeiro #tour must make a stop at Christ the Redeemer, the ubiquitous statue that watches over the city from above the Tijuca National Forest. Take the cable car to the lookout point on Sugarloaf Mountain, the city’s iconic peak, and try not to look down – it’s a long way to the ground! After a morning spent in nature, your #vacation should continue back in the city. Join the sun worshippers at Copacabana, where you can stake out a patch of beach or float out to sea with the paddleboarders. Shop for souvenirs in Ipanema, or take part in the street dances, festivals, and parades that may spontaneously break out. For now, we hope you enjoy watching this #travel #guide as much as we enjoyed making it. More travel information around Rio de Janeiro: https://www.expedia.com/Rio-De-Janeir...
