A Fresh Perspective on Travel Every Day
Rioisn’t the only city that knows how to celebrate Carnival in style. In the week leading up to Lent, millions of people across Latin America take to the streets for dancing, live music, drinking, and revelry—along with a range of unusual and surprising traditions.
Strolling through Paraty feels a little like you’re revisiting a bygone era – horse-drawn carts jolt their way along cobblestone streets, boats hover patiently on pretty shores and life centers around a cluster of white-stone houses etched with Masonic symbols. It’s about switching off and tuning out here, and with 300 beaches, acres of waterfall-laden rainforest, and a network of hiking and cycling trails all within easy reach, you won’t struggle to do so.
