10 Photos from Above: Brazil (with Photos)

Sprawling across half of South America, Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world. It is home to the largest rainforest, the largest river, the largest wetland and the largest waterfall (together with Argentina) in the world. Brazil celebrates the biggest carnival party and has won the Football World Cup five times, more than any other nation. The modern megapolises of Sao Paulo and Rio are among the most populous in the world.

Yet, in the untouched wilderness of the Amazon rainforest several isolated tribes still live without any contact with the rest of the world. Rio, Brazil most beautiful city is famous for its beaches and carnival but also for its drug lords and favelas, the slums located on the city’s mountain slopes. In short, Brazil is a country of extremes that offers the visitor a dazzling travel experience.
