Metropolitana

The region is composed of two cities: Rio de Janeiro and Niterói, which on their streets, beaches and magnificent buildings, represent important chapters in the history of Brazil.

The city of Rio de Janeiro continues to inspire singers, poets and painters for decades, transforming this beautiful geographic space into a national reference for cultural, artistic and political gatherings.

Niterói surprises with its centennial forts, built like sentries portraying an important historic period in this region. This city reveals to anyone who visits, a coast with blue waters, belvederes with gorgeous landscapes, works by the genius architect Oscar Niemeyer, added to the various ecotourism and sports options.

The view of the Baía de Guanabara (Guanabara Bay), outlined by hills and mountain chains like the Pão de Açúcar (Sugar Loaf Mountain), makes an impact on the traveler while crossing the entrance of the inlet.

With a landscape composed of beaches framed by the mountains and by the green of the forests, which extend across the coast dotted with islands, the Metropolitan Region is an extraordinary destination.
