The city of Rio de Janeiro (January River) is located in the eponymous state in Brazil. Rio is the home of Samba music and Carnival, Copacabana, Ipanema and Sugarloaf Mountain. The second-largest city and former capital of Brasil is home to more than six million people (Cariocas) who speak Portuguese as their national language, with more than twelve million people living in the greater metropolitan area. Tropical Rio with its rich colonial heritage is divided into four districts: the North, South and West Zones, and Downtown (the historic city center) and has as a notorious reputation, with a high crime rate emphasized by rampant corruption, even within police ranks. Rios legendary nightlife regularly attracts supermodels, rockstars, the rich and famous, and drug barons, but the city is also a flourishing industrial and financial center and the second largest economic center in the country. Most famous for its wild carnival and new years celebrations, Rio also boasts impressive museums, world-famous sports events and of course the famous beaches, where you can enjoy a refreshing sea breeze while temperatures inland soar.
