Worldwide known for its paradisiacal beaches, its endless Amazonian region and its spirituous carnival, Brazil is famous for proudly claiming to be “the greatest in the world”. In addition, its excellent accommodation venues and services will satisfy visitors at any destination.
Its well-deserved fame partly results from its large population and from the fact that it occupies the eastern half of South America, as well as several islands of extraordinary beauty on the Atlantic Ocean. Its geographic diversity gives life to fantastic sites, ranging from the rainforest, the waterfalls and the mountain range to the beautiful beaches of white sand and warm waters that have made it well-known all round the world for an almost 10 thousand-kilometer-long coastline.
Among the most important cities, São Paulo has over 11 million inhabitants and Río de Janeiro, a little more than 6 millions. Both cities are the most populated in Brazil. Other important metropolis are Brasilia, Manaos, Belen, Río de Janeiro, Fortaleza, Natal, Recife, Maceió, Belo Horizonte, Florianopolis, Salvador Bahía, Porto Alegre and Búzios, which feature typical tourist and cultural attractions to be chosen by visitors during their stay.
