About Brazil for visitors

Brazil dominates South America as a kaleidoscope of ecosystems, rhythms, and energy — the Amazon rainforest draws naturalists and explorers, Rio's beaches and Christ the Redeemer anchor summer party-goers and sightseers, São Paulo's nightlife and arts scene pull culture vultures, and the Iguazu Falls mesmerize everyone. Carnival in Rio is the world's most famous street party, while the country's football obsession runs year-round.

São Paulo's Congonhas (CGH) and Guarulhos (GRU) handle the heaviest international loads, with Rio de Janeiro (GIG) a close second, and Salvador (SSA) collecting beach-bound travelers. Immigration lines can be substantial during peak seasons, with parallel queues for Brazilian and foreign nationals; mobile immigration units help distribute traffic during the busiest periods.
