A cable car with floor to ceiling glass walls is suspended, high above the ground, from cables joining a rocky, forested hilltop to something out of frame. Behind the cable car, at sea level, is a beach in a bay between two rocky, forested hills. Numerous multi-story buildings spread inland from the beach.

A mix of old-school charm and modern energy is behind Rio&#8217;s creative scene. You can lose yourself in the stunning, floor-to-ceiling bookshelves of the Real Gabinete Português de Leitura, or wander through the street art and galleries of Santa Teresa.
