Rio De Janeiro Brazil's Concealed Gems For Tourists

By Caren Machado


Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas typically known as Lagoa is a lagoon plus a district in Rio de Janeiro Brazil which is bordered by other areas like Ipanema, Leblon, Gavea, Jardim Botnico, Copacabana, Botafogo, and Humaita. The locale draws many travelers on holiday through the Christmas time of year when a particular Christmas tree that's erected on a drifting platform moves about inside the lagoon.

The lagoon provides several amusement venues like nightclubs, bars, restaurants, accommodations, rental apartments and it is the head offices of the soccer team Flamengo. You will find a range of free of charge sport surfaces, bi-cycle in addition to jogger's paths, many play areas for kids and premium food kiosks.

Joatinga Beach is a destination that is significantly less frequented by people on family vacation and as a result is also ironically the most desired by tourists who would like to take it easy and get out of the commotion of Ipanema and Copacabana. This whitened sandy beach is one of most properly protected natural reserves in Rio de Janeiro. The ecological diversity of the Atlantic rainforest, mangroves and the modest tribe of Caicara is not something you ought to neglect. The beach which is a crossover in between forests and virgin beaches also is a dream come true for professional surfers.

Barra da Tijuca Beach is the longest beach in Brazil and stretches around 18 kms from Morro do Joa on up to Recreio. It's a clear green beach and a hot spot for surfers as well as wind and body surfers. The beach also welcomes beginners in water sports and immediately after experiencing the sea surf there are many of restaurants, kiosks, drink and food stalls where you could have some snacks.

The museum Chacara Do Ceu is a popular tourist destination that houses various modern day fine art by artists including Lygia Clark and Portinari. In addition, it contains Brazilian artifacts going back to the 17th and 18th centuries. Also, coupled to the museum is the Parque das Ruinas which happens to be renowned for staging music concerts. The park is not just aesthetically pleasing but also includes the ruins of the house that belonged to the Brazilian heiress Laurinda Santos Lobo.
