Tourist's eye view - Brazil
Location:
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, RJ 22080-101
If visiting Brazil doesn't amaze and put you into a sense of awe at the incredible beauty of this place on Earth, your vision needs checking! Riding the aerial tramway up to the top of Sugar Loaf (Pao Azucar) initially was a bit daunting ... I couldn't stop thinking about that 007 movie where there was fighting on top of the swinging tram car! But amazingly, the ride was smooth and nonfrightening even though the tram is almost 100 % glass. The view is just so amazing it overwhelms the senses. At that moment I thought nothing could be more beautiful. That was before I traveled up a mountain on a streetcar to Corcovado to see the Cristo. Oh my gosh! Corcovado is higher than Pao Azucar which can be seen below along with an incredible vista of Rio de Janeiro, the harbor(s) and Copacabana! Seeing the view combined with the enormous and amazing statue of Christ overlooking it all, arms widespread to encompass the entire world, was inspirational to say the least. I definitely recommend this as a vacation destination! 0 comments from 0 users
