The World Cup is always a good time for a bit of a geography lesson.
So, who exactly are the host cities this time? Well, Rio de Janeiro
needs no introduction. It’s a world-renowned beach city packed with
entertainment.
São Paulo is the birthplace of Brazilian football and the biggest
city in the country. Ultra-modern Brasilia is an architectural
masterpiece and World Heritage site.
Belo Horizonte may not be as well-known but it’s also one of Brazil’s
major cities and a perfect combination of green and urban landscape.
At 1.8 million inhabitants, Curitiba is smaller than many Brazilian
cities but no less cosmopolitan thanks to the multi-cultural population.
Fortaleza and Recife’s beaches make them some of the country’s major
tourist destinations. Manaus isn’t ocean-side but it’s one of the most
amazing places to get a stunning view of the Amazon River.
Natal is known as the city of the sun because of its amazing weather.
They have many as 300 sunny days per year – quite a nice break from
England!
