legal said:It must be your eyes, honey! Cities like Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Salvador and Brasilia, for example, could never look more different.
Rio is a fantastic city in the most exotic and beautiful natural setting on Earth, with all kinds of architecture and districts scattered among rocks, mountains and the sea.
Sao Paulo is that dense mass of builidngs in a very chaotic, incredibly dense (yet powerful and massive) disposition.
Brasilia is anything but dense, a very spacious city, with lots of empty spaces, and a modernist urban design.
Salvador is the birthplace of the Brazilian african culture, with XVI and XVII historic builidngs and fantastic churches and old districts.
You must be mistaking the cities with some American cities that look all alike. Just take pictures of downtown Houston, Atlanta, Dallas, Charlotte, Denver or Pittsburg. You could never tell which is which, some glass skyscrapers in downton surrounded by residential suburbs.
Don't say that all American cities are the same. They clearly appear different.legal said:You must be mistaking the cities with some American cities that look all alike.

I never said all brazilian cities look the same. It's stupid to say that all cities in any country are the same, that's why I posted pics of different US cities, to show that they aren't all the same!AcesHigh said:then dont say all brazilian cities look the same.
You got a point here, as both types of cities share similar characteristics, like wallmarts and freeways in the US and highrises in Brazil. Still, not even two identical cities in the world exist.American cities are as similar among themselves as brazilian cities among themselves!
