Seller: Dial-A-Book, NARRABEEN, NSW, Australia
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Condition: Poor. Square 4to. New copy still in shrinkwrap. 204pp. Rio de Janeiro is everyoneâs fantasyland. The Cidade Maravilhosa (the marvellous city) combines tropical vegetation, beaches carpeted with Girls from Ipanema and a sultry climate that lures everyone out of their homes on the many balmy evenings. Nothing can detract from its natural beauty, and no one can erase the smile of a carefree Carioca â" the name the Indians gave to the original European settlers. Both a travelogue and a look inside some spectacular local homes, Living in Rio is a stylish overview of the cityâs history, beaches, nightlife, parties and sensuous lifestyle. Vibrant photographs capture Rio, from the legendary Copacabana Palace to a white-walled mountain eerie designed by Oscar Niemeyer to the raucous parades of Carnival, while insider text gives an overview of the cityâs dynamic art, architecture and sense of colour. Includes a Visitor's Guide to Key Local Stores, Restaurants, Hotels, Bars and other useful information. Seller Inventory # 39894
