RIO

Summer is coming soon. Yep! Where to fly to a long, cool getaway? Beautiful and at the same brutal, sophisticated and populist, tropical and urban, Rio de Janeiro is the place to discover. Because it is a buzz of energetic contradictions. Rio's coolest months are June and July, when the temperature can finally drop to a pleasant 18 degrees, far away from the hottest January and February. The turquoise waters, which lap all around the coastline, are a living storyboard of design and fashion inspiration. Catch the surfers at Arpoador, sunbathe at Barra Beach or Barra da Tijuca, explore the steep inclines of Santa Teresa or head to a samba school, such as Mangueira, to catch the pre-carnival practices.
