Carnaval in Rio Posted by sasha on Apr 26, 2018 in Culture, Video
After celebrating the first half of Carnaval in Pernambuco, we headed to Rio de Janeiro. Carnaval in Rio just might be the biggest party in the world! There are blocos all over the city, including the amazing Sargento Pimenta where a huge band plays samba versions of Beatles songs. Then there are the Sambadrome parades, which go all night long. One thing’s for sure – there’s not much sleep happening during Carnaval in Rio.
What a party!
See highlights of Carnaval in Rio in this short video, which also includes Escadaria Selarón, Cristo Redentor, and Copacabana:
