Contrasts abound in Brazil – the exhilaration of Rio, home of the samba and bossa nova, the colourful folklore, rich traditions and delicious cuisine of Salvador, the beaches and Baroque architecture of the cities in the northeast. And, at the opposite extreme, there’s the natural wonder of the Amazon Jungle and the vast Pantanal, each a haven for Brazil’s diverse wildlife.
