Welcome to Rio de Janeiro
Golden beaches and lush mountains, samba-fueled nightlife and spectacular football matches: welcome to the Cidade Maravilhosa (Marvelous City). The famous white arches span the entrance to Rio’s buzzing nightlife spot, Lapa. What was once an active aqueduct supplying fresh water to the city in the 18th century is now the track for the famous bonde (the street tram) that leads up to Santa Teresa, and also a key meeting spot before diving into Lapa’s party scene. The former mansion of Enrique Lage and his Italian singer wife, Gabriella Besanzoni, Parque Lage is now a visual arts school and restaurant open to the public. The striking futurist architecture of the Museum of Tomorrow is a startling contrast to the scenic port surroundings, making it one of the most photographed places in Rio
