Maracana football stadium

posted by ctoyley on 11 August 2010 at 12:33

This is one of the biggest fotball stadium and in the 1950 world cup for which it was built hosted nearly a quarter of a million people. If you can see a game here, you absolutely must. The atmosphere is absolutely electric. It can be a bit dangerous though so keep an eye on your belongings.

Ipanema

posted by gevans on 11 August 2010 at 12:27

Ipanema has to be the hippest spot in Rio and benefits from the Copacabana's pull on tourists. There are lots of nice restaurants and shops in the area surrounding the beach and you must stop at one of the many beach bars for a caiparinha. There are lots of sports played on the beach and its generally a very sociable place.

Copacabana

posted by xshea on 11 August 2010 at 12:22

This must be one of the most famous beaches in the world, and since its recent clean up, is one of the best. There's an enormous expanse of pristine sand and its worth going just to watch the football and beach volleyball matches that take place regularly here.

Christ the Redeemer, Corcovado

posted by cweingarten on 11 August 2010 at 12:18

This is the sight that everyone associates with Rio de Janeiro and the views are absolutely incredible. Its well worth getting a tour guide who will spend a long time with you at the top pointing out the landmarks of the city. The train up takes you through Tijuca rain forest which is also lovely.
