Parks & Nature
Rio's Botanic Garden is certainly a must ! This beautiful peaceful garden, in the middle of the city's hustle and bustle, is a UNESCO biosphere reserve with a wide variety of exotic plants from all over the world — over 8,000 species, among imperial palm trees, pau-brasil (redwood trees), orchids (more than 500 kinds), bromeliads, water lilies, etc. — as well as monkeys, toucans and hundreds of other birds. A pleasant outdoor cafe overlooks the gardens.

Certainly the most stunning view of Rio !
Our tip : the best time (at least for us) to go up the Sugar Loaf, mainly in hot days, is around 4:30-5:00 PM : the heat is more clement, you'll still have daylight while going up, and you can then watch the sun setting over the bay and the mountains - it's magic and sumptuous ! (And it's safe, you won't be alone since many people prefer going up at that time of the day.)
