RIO DE JANERO CIRCA 1936



'The marvelous city' or 'city of splendor 'in 1936. Video is a bit dated, but that's the charm. Rio de Janeiro has changed a lot in the past seventy seven years. Still beautiful as ever, and undergoing quite a lot of changes with the World Cup and Olympics on the way. Was just there for holidays and it isn't the travel bargain it was a few years ago, but still as magic as ever. Everyone should go at least once. Caution! You may not want to come back. Miss the old home town... Ah saudades....!!!!
