Is Rio de Janeiro popular? What do you think?

My answer is yes, That is big city and that is the first city in Brazil I know before get to know other city.

Yes, Rio is one of the most popular cities in the world, sharing position just behind the city that never sleep (Newyork).

Is it any big city in Brazil are so wonderful and popular as Rio de Janeiro. have anybody from brazil here who can give me an answer. Thanks

Next to Rio comes Sao Paolo. It is also very big and important.

I see, btw I heard Rio de Janeiro is known with its crime rates and such, I wonder if it's the same with Sao Paolo.

Since I am not from Brazil, I did some research. It is truly famous. Well, the giant statue of Jesus (known as Christ the Redeemer) located on a mountain top has been named as one of the New Seven Wonders of the world. In addition, the city has also amazing beaches and spectacular natural setting.

I think yes, Rio de Janeiro is a very popular place in Brazil. I have learned that it was the second largest city in Brazil and it is where beautiful beaches can be found.

Whenever I think of Brazil, the first name that comes across my mind is Rio de Janeiro

With its spectacular beaches and 11.7 million inhabitants, who would say Rio de Janeiro is unpopular?

obviously.... it is popular... one of the names that pops up in mind whenever i think of brazil...
