A great full day trip to get away from the city in the morning and hike the rainforest of Tijuca, and to discover life inside a the favela da Rocinha, the largest favela in Brazil, in the afternoon. Just a few steps from the streets of Rio lies the thriving oasis of Tijuca, the world’s largest urban rainforest. Contained within the city limits, this lush jungle is home to hundreds of species of plants and wildlife. In the afternoon, see various communities within the favela, a Brazilian version of the shanty towns in South-Africa. Get a clear idea of the lifestyles and understand the structure and system of a favela.
