The 6 Best Sights & Landmarks in Laranjeiras, State of Rio de Janeiro (RJ)
With its plentiful beaches, dramatic mountains, and backdrop of samba and bossa nova rhythms, it's easy to fall in love with Rio de Janeiro. Made famous in song, Ipanema Beach is still the place to stroll, sunbathe, and be seen. The largest Art Deco statue in the world, Christ the Redeemer, beckons visitors to Corcovado Mountain. Rio’s annual Carnaval celebrations are bacchanalian extravaganzas of feasting, music, dance, and costumed revelry.

Most Cariocas don't live like they do in the center and this tour gives you the chance to visit a favela, with a locally famous artist, in relative safety. You will see the very good and the very bad and get a realistic picture of the life of some poorer Cariocas. The Projecto has a really interesting story that improbably launched its young creators into the Venice Bienniale and National Geographic documentaries. The views of sugar loaf from the favela are as good as anywhere in the city. It only takes 2-3 hours and leaves from the delightful Santa Teresa neighborhood.
