Sao Paulo is the country’s leading commercial and industrial city; its wide avenues and skyscrapers mix with its older constructions, parks and plazas. Brasilia, the capital, is one of the best examples of urban planning in the world; its modern architecture is outstanding. Carnival Rio de Janeiro, known as the “Marvelous City”, is surrounded by beautiful landscapes and is headquarters for the biggest party in the world: Carnival. Each year, thousands of people enjoy its unequaled atmosphere and the parades put on by the Samba schools. Carnival is also celebrated in the cities of Sao Paulo and Pernambuco, where the giant puppets are the attraction; and in Salvador, with its mobile stages.
