I have a great affection for this country. I have lived here as well as visited at least a dozen times. I have traveled all throughout Brazil by car, bus, air, train, and cruise ship. Brazil is as large as North America and has so many cultures and states to explore! From the North Amazon region to the NW beach resorts, to cities like Rio & Sao Paulo, to the rain forest to the Southern Gauchos and waterfalls! Each area has its own history, foods, and cultures. An abundance of beautiful Hotels as well. Let’s explore where you want to go!In the North you have the Amazons where Belem, Manaus & Sao Luis are some of the great locations to visit. Going east to the bumpy point is Natal which is one of my favorites. It is the gateway to the stunning beaches of Rio Grande do Norte, perched on Brazil's Atlantic coast, at the mouth of the Potengi River. t's known for its extensive coastal sand dunes, nature areas, and famous historical sites. One of the safest cities in Brazil. Not to be missed! This is where locals come to vacation.Then head South to Rio de Janeiro to the famous Ipanema Beach and the Christ on the Hill. If you want a city like New York head to Sao Paulo where life is fast and city life booms! My last favorite area is the South. The old Portuguese/German European culture with cattle ranches and Gauchos can be seen. The beautiful Rain Forest and Iguazu Falls is breath taking. So many things to do! You can also take a cruise around Brazil and stop at these magnificent locations.
