One of the most beautiful postcards in Rio... 2 hours
One of the most beautiful postcards in Rio de Janeiro offers stunning views of the entire city. From Praia Vermelha, visitors take the first tram leading to the Urca hill, and from there a second cable car takes them to the top of the Sugarloaf hill, which is 396 meters from sea level. Different stories justify the name of this tourist spot; the most popular one says that during the 16th and 18th centuries, at the height of sugarcane production, producers stored sugar blocks in forms for export, and the similarity of the object to the Sugarloaf hill gave rise to the name. . Inaugurated in 1912, the Sugar Loaf Cable Car was the first cable car in Brazil and the third in the world, connecting the Morro da Urca to the Sugar Loaf Hill. Since then, over 40 million people have used the cable cars. From the top of the two hills, a breathtaking landscape of the city is revealed, including Botafogo Inlet, Copacabana waterfront and Guanabara Bay entrance. In summer, the amphitheater located at the top of Morro da Urca is the stage for nightly shows and events, combining fun with a beautiful view of the city lights.
