Brazil - Rio de Janeiro

We have just completed a fantastic six-week trip around Argentina, Chile and (a bit of) Brazil - see map. What contrasts! From cities to mountains, and glaciers to deserts. Naturally I took loads of photos, so I have arranged them: Argentina - Cities, Landscapes, Wildlife; Brazil - Rio de Janeiro (this album); Chile - Cities, Landscapes, Wildlife plus (as they are so unique) Moai of Rapa Nui and Street Art of Valparaiso. I have also included one combined album: Argentina and Brazil - Iguazu Falls What can be said about Rio de Janeiro? A stunning and iconic setting, and rightly a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Home of the carnival, it is also a city of extreme contrasts - rich and poor, luxurious and humble, fit and fat! We spent a great couple of days visiting the key sites.
