Geography Of Rio De Janeiro

Leblon Beach, Rio

My name is Michael Dunlap. I am a Freshman at UC Denver and majoring in Criminal Justice. I have decided to blog about the Capital of Brazil, Rio de Janeiro. Rio is the second largest city in Brazil and I have been interested with Rio for some time now and would like to visit in the near future. I first became interested in this beautiful city when i watched the Movie Fast Five. I was taken by the scenery and extravagant beaches. Not only is the landscape breathtaking the culture is also very intriguing to me.

Rio will also hold major sporting events like the 2014 FIFA world cup and 2016 Summer Olympics. I hope to gain much knowledge on this tour of The city Rio!
