As atividades de lazer do Brasil

As atividades de lazer do BrasilLeisure Activities of Brazil

With its sandy white beaches, clear water and tropical climate, Brazil is idea for almost any forms of leisure activities. I will touch on some of the most well-known leisure activities of Brazil.


Festivals & Events



On the topic of festivals and events, the Carnival at Rio de Janeiro is definitely the most spectacular attraction in Brazil. Although other regions of Brazil also have Carnival, the one at Rio de Janeiro is one that cannot be missed as the modern Carnaval originated there in 1641. Words cannot be used to describe this grand street parade, so enjoy the video!!




Another festival worth mentioning is the Amazonia folklore festive – Boi Bumba Festival in Parintins. It is a street parade, a competition, a tribal ritual and a giant puppet show, all at once. Enjoy the video below:
