[Rio de Janeiro Fish Market]
"San Pedro Fish Market" in Niterói, next to Rio de Janeiro
It's a hidden lunch and sightseeing spot that tourists also visit.
Many restaurants in Rio de Janeiro also buy fish from here.

When you come to Rio, be sure to visit Niterói!
[State of Copacabana Beach]
Rio de Janeiro was on a carnival vacation without a parade.
The occupancy rate of the hotel was about half of the average year, there were few tourists, and there was no parade, so the atmosphere was quiet, but the weather was fine and I was able to spend a relaxing time.
[Samba team / Sargueiro practice scene]
Unfortunately, this year's carnival has been canceled, but we usually hold public practice every Saturday about four months before the actual performance to showcase the results of our daily practice.
The funds obtained from the admission fee, food and drink charges in the venue, sales of goods, etc. will be important funds for the team's activities, so you will naturally get into the practice and show the dance and performance just like the actual performance!
If you want to come to the carnival but can't, don't worry, there are places in Rio where you can enjoy the carnival atmosphere outside of the actual time!
* The photo shows the practice scene in February 2020.

[January 25, the state of Copacabana]
Rio, which is crowded with tourists from all over the world every year, cannot beat Corona and shows a mysterious way of calming down.
When you enter the street a few lines back from the beach, many shops are closed and you can feel the depth of the scars on the corona, but since the corona vaccination has started, it will end as soon as possible and the original Hope to return to Rio!

[Chinese restaurant in Centro]
A popular shop in the shopping district where you can easily drop in by yourself.
The menu is as simple as the store, with only noodles and dumplings (water dumplings and grilled dumplings), but the price is low, so it is perfect for people who want to save time and money.
The taste is ... well, don't worry too much (laughs)
[Carnival in Rio 2021 canceled]
On January 21, the Mayor of Rio de Janeiro announced that the 2021 Rio Carnival was scheduled to be canceled in July.
We tried to postpone the event from February to July, but we decided to cancel it because we think that it is impossible to hold the parade to ensure the safety of all (participants / spectators) by July.
It was the first "cancellation" in carnival history. .. ..
I pray that 2022 will be held safely! !!

The memorable vaccination was held under the Rio symbol "Christ the Redeemer" as a vaccination start ceremony.

According to the Ministry of Health's announcement, shipping to various places will be completed by the end of today (18th), and vaccination will be available from 17:00.
Brazil has also taken a new step towards converging the corona.

[Suburban resort area, Bugios]
Bugios, a city about 3 hours drive from Rio.
It is one of Brazil's leading resorts and is ranked in the top 5 cities in Brazil visited by foreign tourists.
It wasn't very familiar to Japanese customers, but due to the influence of the corona, it has gained a lot of attention, and people living in São Paulo are coming to visit.
As a measure against corona, Bugios issues a QR code issued by the accommodation and tour company to tourists in advance and checks it at the entrance of the city to prevent it from becoming unnecessarily dense.
How about working away from the hustle and bustle of the city while relaxing on a beautiful beach?
[New Year's Eve at Copacabana Beach]
Unfortunately, it was canceled this year due to the influence of Corona, so
We will deliver the state of last year's New Year's Eve event!
I pray for the corona convergence as soon as possible. May the new year be a good one for you.

[Seafood restaurant]
Seafood restaurant "O Peixe Vivo" in the Copacabana area
There are many recommended dishes such as Casquina de Siri (crab shell gratin), Kaudeirada (Brazilian bouillabaisse with plenty of seafood), and Badejo (white fish)!
Please give it a try when you come to Rio de Janeiro!
