BRAZIL ~Rio de Janeiro~

I can only say that you are always welcome back! :-)


Sugarloaf Mountain (Pão de Açúcar) is one of the many granite and quartz peaks that rise out of Guanabara Bay in Rio de Janeiro. The summit is 396 metres (1,300 ft) above sea-level. The summit can be reached by cable car (bondinho) that can transfer up to 75 passangers along a 1400-metre route between the Babilônia and Urca hills every half hour. The cable cars were originally introduced by the engineer Augusto Ferreira Ramos in 1912.
