Jungle

Brazil is home to one of the largest tropical forests in the world, which occupies more than 61% of the Brazilian territory. The Amazon Rainforest has a fauna that corresponds to 80% of the species of Brazil and a flora that contains 10 to 20% of the vegetal species of the planet. And there are rivers that make up the largest reservoir of fresh water in the world. A place like this deserves to be visited.

Currently, inns can be found in different places of the region to receive tourists. Those who choose this adventure can still count on numerous boat trips that leave Manaus and get in touch with nature in its greatest expression of life.

Party and joy

The Brazilian people are known for their joy and fondness for the parties. Among the most famous are the Carnival, which has its main events in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, where specific spaces were built to celebrate the party: the sambodromos. This is where the main samba schools parade with immense floats, lots of creativity and samba in the foot. A party that makes everyone stand up to watch the show go by.

  But it is in Bahia that happens the most popular carnival in the country. Electric trios that carry singers and lots of music drag crowds around the city of Salvador. The carnival that happens between February and March electrify the whole country and there is party and samba in all the cities of Brazil.

Gastronomy

Tapioca

The original recipe was created by the Indians, who wisely took advantage of all the properties of cassava to create the most varied recipes. Over time, the delicacy became popular, gaining new fillings and tastes and taking care of tents, kiosks and other commercial establishments, responsible for leaving the days and nights of many Brazilian cities still delicious.

Salted or sweet, tapioca is served hot and is a special part of northeastern culture, although it can already be savored in any other region of Brazil.

Acarajé

Originating in Bahia, the acarajé is a cookie made of bean-clawed pasta and stuffed with shrimp, vatapá or caruru and pepper. A very important detail to note is that the dish can be served 'hot' or 'cold', being cold with little pepper and hot as hot as possible.

Cachorro Quente

In fact, the hot dog was not originally bred in Brazil, but in the United States. In Brazil, however, the best known American street dish in the world has gained several adaptations, sauces and seasonings. In addition, each region wanted to give its special touch to the recipe, creating as many varieties as it allows Brazilian creativity.

Historical cities

Since its discovery, Brazil has received the most varied cultures through colonizers and adventurers who saw in this land a possibility of new life. With this, the country gained in cultural diversity.

From north to south, we can find towns and cities, which have remained almost intact. To the north, with Dutch influence many preserve churches and buildings. Already to the southeast in the state of Minas, you will find mansions and narrow streets. In Bahia, we can still find marks left by the imperial colony that can be found in the neighborhoods Pelourinho or Santa Cruz. In the south the cities seem to have stopped in time like Nova Petrópolis, in Rio Grande do Sul where can be found outdoor museums.

Mountains of sand and rocks

Even if there is a great doubt as to whether or not there are mountains in Brazil, they are one of the greatest natural riches of the country, and can be found in various forms.

One of the most famous mountains is the "Dedo de Deus" (Dedo de Deus), which was named after an index finger pointed to the sky, located in the state of Rio de Janeiro, and can only be accessed by climbing.

Other mountains that can not go unnoticed by tourists when they go to Brazil are: Lençóis Maranhense, in the northeast, in the Cerrado, Jalapão in Tocantins; Or also to the south as in Santa Catarina. These landscapes are well-known for their colors, shapes and dimensions.

For those who like adventure, this is the perfect place.

The most beautiful beaches in the world

Besides Brazil own one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, this country has more than 7 thousand kilometers of beaches. From the coast of the high northeast in the Rio Grande do Norte to the coldest of Rio Grande do Sul can enjoy the most varied shades: Blue and green.

For those who have the courage to venture in the deepest waters, the beaches make a point of welcoming tourists with open arms.

To increase its possibilities, in addition to salt water, we have freshwater spring, Alter do Chão, in Pará, where the sand is white, also known as "Brazilian Caribbean" is considered one of the most beautiful in Brazil. And like her, there are several others scattered throughout the country.
