Rio De Janeiro Brazil's Less Recognized Sight-Seeing Opportunities

By Caren Machado


Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas largely called Lagoa is a lagoon as well as a region in Rio de Janeiro Brazil which is bordered by various other districts such as Ipanema, Leblon, Gavea, Jardim Botnico, Copacabana, Botafogo, and Humaita. The locale draws a lot of travelers on vacation through the Christmas period when a particular Christmas tree that's constructed on a drifting platform moves about inside the lagoon.

The lagoon provides several leisure venues like dance clubs, cafes, restaurants, hotels, rental flats and it is the head offices of the football team Flamengo. You can find a variety of free of charge sport courts, bike and jogger's paths, a number of playgrounds for kids and premium food kiosks.

Joatinga Beach is a getaway that is significantly less frequented by people on family vacation and therefore is likewise ironically the most preferred by vacationers who want to take it easy and get out of the commotion of Ipanema and Copacabana. This white sandy beach is among the most properly protected natural reserves in Rio de Janeiro. The environmental variety of the Atlantic rainforest, mangroves and the little tribe of Caicara is not something one should neglect. The beach which is a cross-over in between forests and virgin beaches also is a fantasy come true for experienced surfers.

Barra da Tijuca Beach is the longest beach in Brazil and runs around 18 kms from Morro do Joa on up to Recreio. It's a transparent green beach and a popular spot for surfers and also wind and body surfers. The beach in addition embraces beginners in aquatic sports and soon after enjoying the sea surf there are a lot of restaurants, kiosks, drink and food stalls where you could get some snacks.

The museum Chacara Do Ceu is a popular tourist attraction that houses a number of present day art by artists including Lygia Clark and Portinari. It also contains Brazilian artifacts going back to the 17th and 18th centuries. Additionally, coupled to the museum is the Parque das Ruinas and is renowned for holding musical events. The park isn't just good to look at but in addition consists of the ruins of the home which belonged to the Brazilian heiress Laurinda Santos Lobo.
