The Sugar Loaf - can we still buy sugar in this shape?









The Sugar Loaf (Pao de Acucar) is one of Rio's main tourist attractions. The best time of the day to go on it is around 4 p.m.. The cable car will take you up to the 1st mountain (Morro da Urca), and then, after strolling around and taking many pictures, the next cable car takes you up to the Sugar Loaf mountain. On your way down, you will start seeing the sunset take over Rio, and that's why the time you go up there is crucial. The sun beautifies the city so much more, and the lights coming on give it a spinkley touch.

Hello ladies! Yes, we did have a wonderful time. Unfortunately I just learned to really appreciate it after I no longer had it everyday. Crazily sad!..
