With Brazil\u2019s Guanabara Bay in the distance, the statue keeps an eye on the fabled beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana. Passionate, dynamic, colorful, Rio is a city that is bursting with a zest for life. This energy is palpable during the numerous celebrations and events that have taken place in the city, including the Summer Olympics, two World Cups, Carnival, and more. Rio de Janeiro is home to the expressive dance of the samba, which perfectly embodies the high-tempo rhythms of the city.<\/p>\n<p>Whether it is the sound of a record by bossa nova pioneer Jo\u00e3o Gilberto or the reverberations of a massive Madonna concert on Copacabana Beach, Rio does not cater to those looking for peace and quiet. Beyond the musical output, the city is also a major influence in the world of design, inspiring the likes of Oscar Niemeyer and Roberto Burle Marx. Then there is Copacabana Palace, a true icon of the Rio landscape and the hotel of choice for members of the jet set for the past century. This and more pop off the pages of Assouline\u2019s Rio de Janeiro, with local insights from Bruno Astuto.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236439 img-responsive img-center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIOdeJANEIRO_Classic03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1875\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIOdeJANEIRO_Classic03.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIOdeJANEIRO_Classic03-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIOdeJANEIRO_Classic03-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIOdeJANEIRO_Classic03-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIOdeJANEIRO_Classic03-1229x1536.jpg 1229w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236437 img-responsive img-center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-10.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1946\" height=\"1297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-10.jpg 1946w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-10-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-10-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1946px) 100vw, 1946px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236435 img-responsive img-center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1946\" height=\"1297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-8.jpg 1946w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-8-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-8-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-8-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-8-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1946px) 100vw, 1946px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236433 img-responsive img-center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1946\" height=\"1297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-6.jpg 1946w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-6-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-6-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-6-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/RIO_SPREAD-6-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1946px) 100vw, 1946px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236429 img-responsive img-center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/KENTRIKH-10.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1946\" height=\"1297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/KENTRIKH-10.jpg 1946w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/KENTRIKH-10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/KENTRIKH-10-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/KENTRIKH-10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/KENTRIKH-10-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1946px) 100vw, 1946px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Photos Courtesy of Assouline<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arms outstretched, gaze slightly downward, covered in millions of soapstone tiles, and placed atop a pedestal, Christ the Redeemer stands watch over Rio de Janeiro from its perch on Corcovado.
