1. Iguazu Falls
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 44,476 reviews
The colossal power of these thundering falls, viewable from both Argentina and Brazil, and accessible from Paraguay, is a mesmerizing sight: 275 separate falls in a U-shaped formation pound the water below in raging cascades with a deafening intensity.

Iguazu Falls was simply stunning, beyond description. We saw the Falls from both the Argentinean side, up close and personal with the deafening roar of the water in our ears, and from the Brazilian side, from lofty platforms with panoramic views above the Falls. It was magnificent and will be forever memorable. We had one gray cloudy day on the Argentinean side that made for dramatic moody photos, and a cool but bright sunny day on the Brazilian side where brilliant rainbows were everywhere on the water. This is well worth a visit. Our guide Carlos with G Adventures was awesome! He guided us to the best viewpoints on both sides, gave us ample time to absorb the beauty around us, and filled us in on the layout of the Falls, geology and history of the area, etc. Highly recommended!

State of the art place to visit. Rich in concept of a museum and good curation. Amazing restaurant at the Institute and large greener spot to relax and snap pictures.
3. Sugarloaf Mountain
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 55,956 reviews
One of the most beautiful attractions in Rio de Janeiro and one of the most famous in Brazil. Our mission is to take people to an enchantment, fun and entertainment journey – providing happy and unforgettable experiences as well as valuing Brazilian culture. We constantly invest in safety, comfort and innovative technologies. Our locations constitute natural, geological, historical, and touristic landmarks in the city of Rio de Janeiro. As a natural landmark, it reminds us of our reference to the sailors who come to Guanabara Bay. As a geological landmark, it reminds us of our geological site precisely dating the history of our planet. We also talk about historical landmark because on March 1, 1565, Estacio de Sa founded the City of Sao Sebastiao in Rio de Janeiro literally on its feet. And, finally, touristic landmark because the Cable Car opened on Sugarloaf projected Brazil’s name worldwide. It has been the first cable car installed in Brazil and the third in the world.

A different vantage point from the top of Corcovado with more land views than water views (or water seen past land), the top of this so-called 'Sugar Loaf' is actually kind of an "opposite nature" with more views of water than land from its two viewing areas (each of which kind of double-decked): one area facing north with a great wide view of Guanabara Bay & the "long bridge" at some distance straight ahead and from which there's also a view of a good-sized portion of the city (with a pretty nice skyline actually in a big sprawling area of modern high-rises) to the left & across the water with also some nice-looking beaches on that side; and another area facing south with the "open sea" & really quite a phenomenal view of the "entire length" of Copacabana Beach from the hill of Forte Duque de Caxias just shortly from this mountain to Forte de Copacabana on the other end about 3 km away (which is actually what to me was the "most worthwhile" view from this mountain top). I would just say a bit on the downside though is "not much" of ground to walk around up here, but yes there's Morro da Urca shortly below (just about a 5-minute cable car ride away which you have to come through to get up to this mountain top) which is "like a small park" for a nice walk around with also some old cable cars displayed outdoors, a small building with some cable car machinery on display, a small forest trail on a raised platform or such & yes the same views as from above (except for that of Copacabana to the south which cannot be seen from this "lower top") but actually kind of better I would say when it comes to some views such as that of the high-rises to the west across the water & that of the boats in the water also to the west (quite a number of those pleasure vessels to see actually!). And also, pretty nice for browsing and enjoying time up here (on the tops of both Sugarloaf & Morro da Urca) are some nice souvenir shops & restaurants & even a gemstone shop with beautiful sculptures of birds & such made of those stones (quite pricey ones though). And with no metro station close by, one way to not have to spend too much for taxi getting here is by taking the metro to Botafogo Station (both Lines 1 & 2) where you can take a cab outside for just a short ride of 5 to 10 minutes to the cable car station on the bottom of Morro da Urca where you start your "two-part" cable car ride (each just for about 5 minutes) first to the top of Morro da Urca then all the way up to the top of this mountain (which yes resembles a loaf of sugar but a "green one").
4. Parque Ibirapuera
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 36,820 reviews
The emerald heart of an oftentimes gray city, São Paulo's Parque do Ibirapuera offers respite from the urban madness among cool, shady trees and mentally-stimulating structures. Running trails, bike paths, and yoga and capoeira sessions let locals and visitors alike keep fit, while a clutch of museums and galleries — such as the museums of Modern and Contemporary Art, all designed by master Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer — gives the brain a good workout. The impressive Museu Afro Brasil and fiery Auditório Ibirapuera are two of the park's treasures.

Lovely trees all over the park. Beautiful lake. Wonderful place to ride bikes ( you can also rent bikes on the weekends). Sundays are crowded. Wonderful museums inside the park as weel as an auditorium. Easy to park your car ( except on weekends). Food vendors everywhere.

7. Teatro Amazonas
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 9,497 reviews
This magnificent theater, crowned with a tiled mosaic dome in the colors of the Brazilian flag, features operas and other artistic performances.
Reviewed By BernhardL454 - Vienna, Austria
Visiting Teatro Amazonas is a must when being in Manaus. I do highly recommend visiting one of the free shows. We saw a modern balet inspired by traditional Amazon music. Get into the queue about 45 minutes before the show starts. They open the doors at about 30 minutes before the beginning of the show and there is free seating. As it is very chilly inside the Teatro, bring a sweater. It is an opera house, so I do recommend wearing long trousers and propper shoes - not only because of the chilly temperatures inside.
