Impressive.

I had seen countless pictures of Rio, but always from the tourist spots. I never imagined the actual city looked this good.

The only thing missing is new buildings. Seems like construction stopped in the 1970's.

New buildings in downtown Rio:

Very impressive city, really beautiful tropical garden.. I really love pics 17 and 18. What a spectacular interior. What kind of place is it? Also that church pics 51-57 is amazingly rich and gaudy at the same time. Also the glass building with the hanging cantilever is quite impressive engineering, reminds me of the Citicorp building in New York. Could you please provide some infos on some of the landmarks, and also please do separate pics into mutiple postings if you have a lot to post, 60 photos in one posting is too much to keep track. Love to see some more.

The beautiful interior is from the Municipal Theater. The glass building you´re mentioning, if I´m correct, is the BNDES Bank.
The church is Candelaria Church.:)

I´ll follow your advice concerning multiple posts. :)

I´m glad you liked the shots.
