Brazil - Brazilian Embassy Tourist Office
Description :
Brazil. Everyone has heard of the country. They know about the football team and they have heard about carnival. They know there is an awful lot of coffee in Brazil and they have heard of Copacabana which they believe is in Rio de Janeiro. After that it all gets a bit hazy for some.
What has become apparent is that there is a growing interest in Brazil and all things Brazilian among travellers in Britain and the rest of Europe. It is as if Brazil has been rediscovered some 500 years after the first Europeans landed in the state of Bahia on 22 April 1500.
The purpose of this magazine is to redress part of the balance about what is known about Brazil and to give a very brief tour of what the country has to offer the visitor. From the country’s best known city, Rio de Janeiro, to the hidden secrets of the Pantanal, it is all here, and what isn’t is only a mouse click or phone call away at the Brazilian Embassy Tourist Office in London.
The office in London, which opened in April 2000, was Brazil’s first full service tourist office to open overseas and its web site (www.brazil.org.uk) has become a source of information about Brazil for the entire world. While this magazine is targeted mainly at the UK market, it will be of use to any traveller anywhere in the world considering a visit to Brazil.
The tourist office has the complete support of not only the Embassy of Brazil in London; Embratur (the Brazilian Tourist Authority) the Foreign Ministry; and many other Brazilian institutions and and bodies. It works closely with the individual state and municipal tourist authorities the convention and visitors bureaus; and the private sector in both Brazil and the UK. It has, herefore, all the contacts necessary to get the answers to any questions a potential visitor or their travel agent might have.
So sit back and let your fingers and eyes do the walking and discover why you should be planning that trip to Brazil in the near future. 170 million Brazilians are waiting to give you a warm welcome and show you their country.
