Even when Carnival is not in full sway, Brazilians know how to party and do so in style. Rio de Janeiro is home to two of the world's most memorable beaches, both of which have been immortalized in song. Copacabana is arguably the more famous but the hit song Girl from Ipanema earned Ipanema a permanent place in popular culture. You may be excused for spending the bulk of your holiday on the beach - after all, Rio has over twenty to choose from.
