The town
Rio de Janeiro is the second largest city in Brazil after Sao Paulo. An
estimated 6.8 million people currently live in the city on Guanabara Bay in
the south-east of the country. The landmark of the global metropolis is the
Sugar Loaf, the 38-metre-high figure of Christ on the summit of the
Corvovode. The figure stands on one of the most famous beaches in the
world, Copacabana. The Brazilians are also a fitting guest in Altstätten
because of their cultural occasion: the Rio Carnival. The colorful parade is
one of the largest carnival parades in the world. Rio de Janeiro is also
known for its mild climate. The average annual temperature is 22.6 degrees
Celsius.

oldest derby.
