    Corcovado Mountain, Rio De Janeiro Travel Information Corcovado is famous for the huge Christ the Redeemer Statue. One of the most popular tourist attractions in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, is the Corcovado. The Corcovado is a mountain and the name means ‘hunchback’ in Portuguese. Previously, the mountain was named Pinaculo da Tentacao, which means ‘Pinnacle of Temptation ’. The Corcovado Mountain is world famous for the huge Christ the Redeemer statue crowning its peak. From the peak tourists can enjoy sweeping panoramic views of the sea and mountains. With outstretched arms the statue of Christ the Redeemer is 98 feet high and is situated on a 26-feet pedestal. The statute weighs 1,145 tons, and it also has a chapel which can accommodate 150 people. This monument celebrated its 84th anniversary in 2014. It was inaugurated on 12th October, 1931, on the day of Our Lady of Aparecida (national patroness). The statue was designed by Carlos Oswald and developed by the Brazilian engineer Heitor da Silva Costa. The statute took five years to complete. Travelers can climb up the Corcovado by taking the century-old Corcovado Train or car. While travelling up by train they can experience the beautiful landscape of Rio De Janeiro. The train was inaugurated by Dom Pedro II , Emperor of Brazil, in 1884 and the whole ride takes around 20 minutes. The ride is environment friendly as the train is electric.

  • Rio De Janeiro Day 2 Guided City Tour of Rio De Janeiro
    Brazil - Rio Extension Naturetrek Itinerary Pão de Açúcar - Sugarloaf Mountain, Rio City Outline Itinerary Day 1 Fly Rio de Janeiro Day 2 Guided city tour of Rio de Janeiro. Day 3 Day at Leisure/Golden Lion Tamarin add-on Day 4 Transfer to airport Summary A stark contrast from the wilderness of both The Pantanal and Iguazú Falls, the visit to the city of Rio de Janeiro offers a cultural experience which is hard to rival elsewhere in Brazil. Often dubbed as the ‘Marvelous City’ Rio acted as the capital of Brazil until 1960 and is home to some of Brazil’s most famous tourist attractions such as Sugarloaf Mountain (Pão de Açúcar) and the Christ the Redeemer statue (Corcovado). However, the cosmopolitan hustle and bustle cannot detract from city which is surrounded by natural; nestled between the lush, green rolling mountains and the crystal depths of the Atlantic Ocean, a stay in Rio will allow you to capture the essence of Brazil as found nowhere else in the country. © Naturetrek © Naturetrek Brazil – Rio Extension Itinerary Please note that the itinerary below offers our planned programme of excursions. However, adverse weather & other local considerations can necessitate some re-ordering of the programme during the course of the tour, though this will always be done to maximise best use of the time and weather conditions available. Leaving the group tour in São Paulo. After flying with the group to São Paulo you will be met in the arrivals hall and take a private transfer to the Panamby Hotel not far from the airport.

  • Alucinação À Beira Mar É O Mais Antigo Dentre Os Trabalhos De
    Hallucination by the sea-shore Fernando Cocchiarale Hallucination by the sea-shore is the oldest of the works by Marcos Chaves featured in this exhibition. The title of this 1994 piece nevertheless seems up-to- date and apt for this event at the Gallery of Casa de Cultura Laura Alvim, located at one of our city’s picturesque landmarks, Ipanema Beach. Its privileged geographic location suggested to us the curatorial approach for this show, which presents a cross-section of Chaves’ production based on the artist’s works that explicitly or indirectly refer to Rio de Janeiro. Hallucination by the sea-shore consists of an assemblage of two objects acquired by the artist on the same day without any previous aim to join them: an old edition of the only book published by poet Augusto dos Anjos (1884–1912, from the state of Paraíba), Eu e outras poesias, together with a bibelot in terracotta of a nude boy seated on a dark base, holding an open book on his crossed legs. He is, however, lacking his right foot and head, which were broken off before Marcos acquired the piece in a secondhand store in the district of Santa Teresa. That the artist opened the book and placed the statuette on its middle seam, holding it open at the pages of the poems “Alucinação à beira-mar” and “Vandalismo”, determines that the meaning of this work can only be grasped in the intercrossing between the legible (the titles of the poems) and the visible (the broken bibelot, without foot or head).

  • The Captain's Choice of SOUTH AMERICA
    The Captain’s Choice of SOUTH AMERICA: Part 1 Buenos Aires – Iguassu Falls – Rio – La Paz (5 - 12 October 2007) Text: John Biggs © 2007 Images: Catherine Tang © 2007 www.johnbiggs.com.au The Captain’s Choice of South America: Part 1 2 Why South America of all places? We’d read in our Mercury travel section a rave review of a trip to South America, organised by Australian firm, Captain’s Choice: fantastic places, you’d never visit in a fit. We had a fit and decided to visit. Check-in at Melbourne gives us the first indication of the massive inefficiencies of LAN Airlines. We had prepaid fares to Santiago: Qantas to Auckland, LAN from there onwards. I am given a boarding pass to Santiago, but Catherine is informed she has been bumped from the Auckland-Santiago leg. LAN regularly overfill their planes, we are told, someone has to go – and Catherine suspects that a Chinese surname did it for her. Frantic calls to Captain’s Choice, our Melbourne based tour, and we are assured that all will be well. Just proceed to Auckland and meet up with Giselle Kapp, our tour guide. We do just that, and Giselle promptly goes to the counter and returns with Catherine’s Boarding Pass to Santiago. Giselle was made for this trip: born in Buenos Aires of Spanish- German-Italian parentage and migrating to Australia aged eight, she is still perfectly fluent in Spanish. She is to broker some tricky negotiations. On this occasion, US dollars do not change hands. Gordon Higman, our strapping tour manager, has a large wallet crammed with US currency that in country after country appears to buy us out of later and frequent last-minute problems LAN is to foist on us.

  • Rio De Janeiro, Brazil
    Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 1 / 3 2 / 3 Released date: Fri, 2014-07-11 12:00 Copyright: ESA Guanabara Bay in southeast Brazil is pictured in this image from the Sentinel-1A satellite. The city of Rio de Janeiro lies on the western banks of the bay and along the Atlantic coast to the south. Rio is connected to the city of Niterói on the east side of the bay by a large bridge which appears as a dotted straight line. To the north, we can see radar reflections from large ships. Governador is the largest island in Guanabara Bay, and the site of Rio de Janeiro’s main airport. The runways appear as dark lines. Part of Rio de Janeiro was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2012 under the category of ‘cultural landscapes’. The Tijuca National Park – the mountainous area in the lower-left – is a hand- planted rainforest covering more than 30 sq km. The iconic statue of Christ the Redeemer stands at the eastern end of the forest, overlooking the city from the peak of the 700 m-high Corcovado mountain. Zooming in above the mountains, the two circular structures are large stadiums. The one to the right is Estádio do Maracanã, where the final match of this year’s World Cup will take place on Sunday. At the bottom-centre part of the image, the curved coast of the famous Copacabana is visible, while Sugarloaf mountain sits at the mouth of the bay. This image, also featured on the Earth from Space video programme, was acquired on 13 May by Sentinel-1A’s radar working in 'dual polarisation'.
