Brazil, the fragrant, colorful and ethnically varied Latin American country has Christmas customs that evoke the traditions of a number of people from a number of countries, though many customs come from Portuguese heritage.
Rio de Janiero, the second largest city in Brazil and the third largest metro area in South America, is home to a number of attractions. Rio and its tropical savannah climate offer world-class hotels, 80 kilometers of beach land, and the Sugarloaf and Corvado mountains. Rio also supplies visitors with glimpses of the Christ the Redeemer monument, Botafogo's cove, Rio Downtown, Rio-Niteroi bridge, Maracana Stadium, Barra de Tijuca, and this holiday season, the sixth largest cities in the Americas will also have the tallest floating Christmas tree in the world.
