Favela Closeup

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Also in the Copacabana area of Rio. This was shot from our hotel window looking away from the beach. The previous photos were of the view aimed at the beach. Favelas are slum areas that spring up in various areas around Brazil's big cities. This one, perched on the slope of this rock formation/hill has the best view in the entire area. To see a wider view shot from the same vantage point: https://pbase.com/dlgphoto/image/175986393


Best viewed at original size.

for low-cost housing it is surprisingly elaborate, multi-storied, and doubtless a hotbed of community..
