Rio Tourist Guide

 The National Library is located on Avenida Rio Branco, downtown Rio. Built in 1910, it was inspired by the Military School of Paris. Its construction is imposing with an eclectic façade, highlighting the beautiful staircase and the triangular pediment.

 Pedra do Arpoador is located between the neighborhoods of Ipanema and Copacabana in the South Zone of Rio de Janeiro. The stone offers an incredible view with emphasis on the beaches of Ipanema and Diabo, the Cagarras Islands and the Christ the Redeemer. In addition, the point is famous for offering one of the most incredible sunsets in the city. 

 The Maracanã stadium is located in the North Zone of Rio de Janeiro. It was built in 1950 to host football World Cup matches. At the time it was considered the largest stadium in the world, reaching an audience of 200 thousand spectators. The stadium has already hosted shows by great artists and hosted the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio. The site offers guided tours and has the Football Museum.

 Açude do Camorim is an artificial lake located in the Camorim Forest, Pedra Branca State Park, West Zone of Rio de Janeiro. The landscape is impressive. It is hard to believe that this is an artificial lake. The forest grew around the building and incorporated it into the landscape. Access to the Açude do Camorim is made through a light level trail that starts at the park's headquarters in Camorim.

São Conrado Beach is in the neighborhood of the same name in the South Zone of Rio de Janeiro city. It is approximately two kilometers long. Its sea is agitated most of the year, requiring attention when bathing. The waterfront is almost exclusively residential with only one functioning hotel, the Hotel Nacional. Unfortunately the beach suffers from pollution. On rainy days it is possible to see sewage pouring into its sands. As in most of the city's beaches, there are kiosks where it is possible to have a meal or just drink coconut water. It is worth visiting and admiring its beautiful landscape, especially at sunset.
