Best football players in the world. Garrincha, Pelé, Sócrates, Zico, Tostão, Raí, Rivaldo, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Kaká... to name just a few of the most famous ones. The list of excellent footballers is endless.
Beautiful country, beautiful women, Samba.
Okay, I should not mention football, women or Samba.
Hm, what's left then and comes to my mind?
- Rio Amazonas
- Brasilia's futuristic architecture (for 1960s impressions I recommend the Jean-Paul Belmondo adventure movie "L'homme de Rio")
- Bossa Nova, Antonio Carlos Jobim, João Gilberto, Astrud Gilberto, Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso
- Central do Brasil (excellent movie by Walter Salles)
- Cicade de Deus (aka City of God; even more excellent movie by Fernando Mereilles)
