Visitors will be truly amazed by how ubiquitous the street art in Rio is – there’s something artsy on every corner. Sometimes building owners commission the art because they cannot afford more expensive external repairs, but mostly the art’s welcomed for its “coolness.” Also, despite being intended for topographic and security reasons, the city’s numerous high walls just beg to be painted on; in all their white-and-wide-open glory, they’re a grafiteiro’s dream come true. And since no section of Rio is free from artistic expression, you’ll get your fair share of the city’s street art even when touring the favelas. Or, if the favela neighbourhoods aren’t to your tastes, try a Brazilian cooking tour, or relax on a sailing excursion!
