Brazil, once a remote Portuguese colony, is a beautiful country, the largest in South America, with a variety of tourist options. Modern cities, sunny beaches, cruises along the Amazon River, colonial towns, and breathtaking waterfalls are among the many tourist destinations Brazil.
The Northeast, the least developed area, reflects what remains of its Spanish and Dutch past. Its main towns such as Recife are modernized and the weather ranges from very dry to extremely wet.
The Southeast, the most developed and populated area, has a more pleasant climate from tropical to temperate and allows for cultivation of wonderful produce for export. This area is home to exciting cities, such as Rio de Janeiro.
The West, almost entirely uninhabited, is home to the savanna and marshland with prime wild animal viewing, known as the Pantanal.
Finally, the immense Amazon Basin is a wonderland of endless jungles and a gigantic system of rivers hosting incredible wonders of the plant and animal world, many found nowhere else in the world.
