About this title

Synopsis

From the publisher of the legendary South American Handbook comes this comprehensive guide to the fifth largest country in the world -- home of the largest and most famous Carnaval celebration, the hottest samba and bossa nova rhythms, and some of the world's most passionate soccer fans. Now in a thoroughly revised third edition, Footprint Brazil Handbook gives in-depth background information on Brazil's jaw-dropping sights, from the old colonial architecture of Salvador to the dramatic waterfalls and rock formations of Chapada Diamantina National Park to the spectacular wildlife in the depths of the Amazon jungle. A new-and-improved table of contents and a new front map help readers plan visits to the best sights. Full-color maps cross-referenced with the text aid readers in deciding where to stay, eat, and take in the local culture, while stunning full-color photographs depict the highlights of the country. Not to be missed is coverage of the ins and outs of the wildest parties in the Brazilian calendar, including the world-famous Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro.
