Hey, guys! :cool:

Last week I went to Rio for a conference and in my free time I took some pics of the "Marvellous City"...

Well, I hope you all enjoy the thread and I would like to see a lot of replies (not only from brazilians, right?!)... :D

Awesome stuff there mate! When I visit family in Rio all I see is the Ipanema-Copacobana-Botafogo bits and the rest of the time is spent in Angra dos Reis so thanks for showing so many different bits. ;)

Rio looks breathtaking. It has to be the most unique setting for a major city on Earth. I need to visit!

Finally a thread that also emphasizes the architectonic side of Rio (maybe because you're an Architect?). I mean seriously, you captured some very nice shots and I saw some stuff I had never seen in the city in this thread, nice job.

The pics of the natural settings are great, too bad the weather wasn't perfect, but you still managed to take some good shots of the great landscape.

I'm still impressed with the architecture variety in Rio and, indeed, some places could well be in Portugal. Thanks!!

Nice share...I've always been dreaming to go there. The mansion in #26 is just majestic. I almost can smell the lushness aroma of rain forest!
And it's really nice to see some street scape of Rio, not only the beaches & hills, great thread! :okay:

These "marvellous" photos show that Rio is more than just Copacabana and Ipanema!
Although I've been there twice before I didn't realize how many fantastic old houses still exist in the city which makes it so much more interesting and beautiful. Look forward to returning soon = please post more photos!!!

If anybody knows, can you please tell me where this and the other gorgeous buildings, many in what look like a distinct art nouveau style, are located in Rio? :cheers:

Most of these buildings are located in Urca, a neighborhood next to the Sugar Loaf (including the building that appears in the picture mentioned by you). Other buildings also photographed are located in two neighborhoods: Laranjeiras and Flamengo (both relatively close to Downtown and also to the Sugar Loaf).
