most beautiful beaches in the world, some of the busiest,
most exciting cities, as well as the biggest area of
unexplored rainforest on the planet. Most people live near
the sea so there is a lot of empty space.
The country is, of course, enormous. In fact, Brazil is the
fifth largest country in the world. It covers half of South
America and has borders with every South American
country except Chile and Ecuador. It has 19 cities and
more than 170 million people.
Brazil is a fascinating place to visit. The people are warm
and friendly and they generally welcome tourists to their
country. Traditionally, Brazilians give presents to their
hosts when they visit people, so it’s a good idea if you do
the same! Typical gifts include flowers, sweets, and
champagne.
When we think of Brazil, we think of football, music,
dancing, and beaches. The most popular pastimes will not
come as a surprise: playing football, listening to music,
dancing, walking on the beach, or just talking.
