spanning across a hill in center of town, is often called a city within a city, this district gets its distinction from the cobblestones and the colonial mansions that give the area a uniquely romantic and charming aura - further, the views from santa teresa are simply breathtaking, and the wildlife and natural beauty that surrounds this small quiet neighborhood reminds travelers that they are indeed in brazil. these areas have become much safer than in the past, with good transport links to beaches and touristic attractions, and overall they can be more affordable - catering to an ever more diverse and demanding crowd of visitors, the city truly hosts a wide variety of hotels, spanning from large and luxurious to small, romantic and tucked away. one of the oldest, most glamorous and still running hotels is the copacabana palace, now also known as the belmond - opened in 1923, the hotel has the preeminent spot on copacabana beach and has been picked by stars, musicians and world leaders ever since it inaugurated. | camping | |||
