If
you are contemplating a trip to Brazil, it could be for any number of
reasons. For some, it could be to experience and enjoy the hundreds and
hundreds of miles of white sandy beaches. For others, it could be to
experience the wonders of the Amazon, the wildlife of the Pantanal, the
awesome power of Foz de Iguaçu (Iguaçu Falls) or the historical
charm of old cities like Ouro Preto. For still others, it could be to
experience the music, cuisine and heritage of Brazil's 500 year old
culture. It doesn't matter if you are drawn by the allures of Rio de
Janeiro or simply want to kick back and enjoy the delights of a freshly
made caipirinha and
do nothing. Brazil is a big country and there are places, people and
things that will be of interest to even the most jaded traveler. Brazil
is more than a country, it is a sensation unlike almost anywhere else on the planet.
To successfully plan
any trip requires that you have sufficient information. Many Brazilian
travel guides (such as those published by Lonely Planet, Fodor's, Frommer's, Michelin,
etc., as well as many online resources) describe areas of interest
throughout Brazil and have a lot of specific information and
descriptions. These resources can provide invaluable information when
planning your trip. Additionally, many cities, states and areas in
Brazil have English web sites packed with information and resources.
Just do a search on Google, Yahoo or your favorite search engine for a
specific state, city or locale.
