Here are 10 incredible places to visit in Brazil that are popular among foreign tourists, excluding Rio de Janeiro:
Iguazu Falls: One of the seven natural wonders of the world, located on the border between Brazil and Argentina, with its incredible waterfalls and unique landscapes.
São Paulo: The largest city in Brazil, known for its modern architecture, museums, high-quality restaurants and bars, as well as its diverse ethnic communities.
Salvador: The capital of Bahia, known for its rich history, Afro-Brazilian culture and festivals, such as the Carnival and Summer Festival.
Amazing… still need to visit Brazil, and good to know some great options outside of Rio.
If you visit, please bring some bail money for @tokenizedsociety. He likes getting out of jail periodically.
Yes please
Especially now during winter... blankets are way too thin in prison
I understand. Especially with all that cement, they are much colder.
I'm sure you'll like it.
I exclude Rio precisely because of the high crime rate, but fortunately there are many other options in the country.
👍 🇧🇷
This is the type of stuff we need to see this added to Leo.
Did you realize that you excluded Rio from the list on purpose?
It was so that my foreign friends wouldn't have any problems when arriving here.
And yes, we need more content like this in the Leo ecosystem.

Here are five tips for travelers visiting a country with very cold weather and possibly snow:
Winter Clothing: Make sure to pack appropriate winter clothing such as jackets, pants, coats, gloves, hats, and snow boots.
Insulation and Layering: Choose clothing with insulation, such as down, and opt for layering to adjust to the cold as needed.
Protection Gear: Bring protection gear against the cold, such as gloves, hats, ski masks, and snow goggles to protect your face and eyes from the cold and snow.
👍 🥶
Appropriate Footwear: Choose appropriate footwear for the cold weather, such as snow boots, ski boots, or insulated shoes for walking in cold areas.
Skin Care Products: Don't forget to pack skin care products such as moisturizers and sunscreens, as the cold and snow can dry out your skin and increase the risk of sunburn.
Remember to always check local weather conditions before heading out and follow safety and precautionary recommendations from the government and local authorities.

Here are five tips for travelers visiting a country with a beach:
Sunscreen: Choose a sunscreen with the appropriate SPF for your skin type and apply it regularly to avoid sunburn and premature aging.
Swimwear: Make sure to pack suitable swimwear for the activity you plan to do at the beach, such as swim trunks, shorts, skirts, tops, or bikinis. Don't forget to bring a towel or sarong to sit or dry off with.
Beach Accessories: Don't forget to pack beach accessories such as a beach bag to store your belongings, an umbrella for sun protection, a hat for your head and eyes, and a pair of swimming goggles for water activities.
Great tips!
Body Lotion: If you're traveling to a warmer climate, it's essential to use a body lotion to avoid sunburn and keep your skin hydrated.
Know the Water: Make sure to know the water conditions before entering the beach. Some beaches may have strong waves or murky waters, increasing the risk of accidents. If you're visiting a tropical ocean or sea, it's also important to take precautions against waterborne diseases.
Remember to always follow local safety rules and recommendations, check the weather and marine conditions before heading out to the beach, and, most importantly, exercise caution and personal care during your beach visit.
