The cidade maravilhosa (marvelous city) is one of the most densely populated places on earth. The Cariocas - as the inhabitants are called - thrive on dance, drink, beach, sport and sun. It's a city of Dionysian spirit whose people live life head-first.
The international tourist crowd takes advantage of Rio's ritzy side - there are innumerable opportunities to be decadent. But Rio also has much to offer the budget traveler. There are cheap hotels and restaurants aplenty, and the beach is a free entertainment zone.

Suggested Itineraries: Rio de Janeiro
While Rio's many fine churrascarias (traditional barbecue restaurants) should not be underestimated, the city has much more to offer than just carne (meat). In fact, it's in the grip of a culinary renaissance. Every week eclectic new bistros, sushi bars and restaurants open their doors.
The city that throws the world's largest party doesn't go into hibernation after Ash Wednesday. Rio has a vibrant music and arts scene: classical music and opera, art-house cinema, laidback jazz and chorinho spots, open-air bars, over-the-top samba clubs, and throbbing nightclubs.
