Popis:	Rio de Janeiro is the second largest urban center in Brazil and one of the largest economic and cultural centers of Latin America. Fully 70.7% of its territory is already urbanized and it has about 6.3 million inhabitants. The city is located between the mountains and the lifegiving sea a unique geography that enchants visitors and enamors those that live there. The city spreads between two coastal mountain ranges the Pedra Branca and Tijuca massifs and displays specific peculiarities because of these monolithic neighbors (Figure 1).
