The city of Rio de Janeiro was founded in March 1st<\/sup>, 1565 by Portuguese<\/strong>, after a battle to expel the French, who were trying to found a colony there.\u00a0 The city was officially founded as the city of S\u00e3o Sebasti\u00e3o do Rio de Janeiro, in honor of the young king of Portugal, and chose the saint of the same name as patron. The city of Rio de Janeiro was once the seat of the Brazilian government, between 1763 and 1960<\/b>. Rio, as it is simply called, is the capital of the State of Rio de Janeiro, a Brazilian state located in the Southeast region of the country, with 6.748 million inhabitants<\/b> and an HDI of 0.762. Rio attracts tourists from all over the world for its nature and geography, beautiful beaches, carnival, and many other attractions, such as the Sugarloaf Mountain, the Christ the Redeemer, the Museum of Tomorrow, the aquarium, samba, and bars in Lapa neighborhood, among others.<\/p>

Sugarloaf Mountain Cable Car Park Starting<\/strong> from Praia Vermelha, visitors take the first cable car that leads to Morro da Urca, and from there a second cable car takes them to the top of Morro do P\u00e3o de A\u00e7\u00facar, which is 396 meters above sea level.<\/p>

Different stories justify the name of this tourist spot; the most popular one says that during the 16th and 18th centuries, at the height of sugar cane production, producers stored sugar blocks in molds to be exported, and the similarity of the object to the P\u00e3o de A\u00e7\u00facar Hill gave rise to the name.<\/p>

The P\u00e3o de A\u00e7\u00facar Cable Car was inaugurated in 1912<\/b>; it is Brazil’s first cable car and the third in the world, connecting Morro da Urca to Morro do P\u00e3o de A\u00e7\u00facar. Since then, more than 40 million people have used the cable cars. From the tops of both hills, there unfolds a breathtaking view of Rio, including Botafogo Cove, Copacabana waterfront, and the entrance to Guanabara Bay.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
