Rio (pop. 14.3 million) is Brazil’s second largest city and cultural center. The former capital of the country is now considered an international celebration zone due to its gorgeous beaches, laid back attitude and, most notably, Carnaval. Rio’s topography is dotted with infamous monuments such as Christ the Redeemer, Maracana Stadium, Copacabana and Ipanema Beach and Sugarloaf Mountain.

The megalopolis is defined by the Sao Paulo Cathedral, the Altino Arantes skyscraper, Paulista Avenue and an endless stretch of high rises that stretch as far as the eye can see.
