The Carnival in Rio de Janeiro is the date where all the people can have fun. This is the main objective, because it is possible to find friends, to use many colors and go out in the street to go along the blocks.

The idea is that all the people can have fun freely and to demonstrate the diversity and culture of our country.

Exist many blocks, for all preferences. Since themes of the "Marchinhas" of Carnival, up until music pop, rock, characters, super hero, among others.

Taking all the super care I indicate to those who have never been in a bloc in the street, to enjoy one day. But, to avoid the big blocks for not going through problems.

I particularly prefer the blocks in the street, rather than the Carnival in Sapucai.

However all the things have pros and cons.

PROS:

  • Isn't necessary to pay for an event ticket in the Carnival of street. And in the close event or Sapucaí, the ticket price it is expensive in most.
  • In the street it is possible to find cheap drinks, compared to closed events.
  • There are infinity options of blocks for all styles.
  • It's possible know and meke new friends.
  • It's fun to wear different costumes and for those who like it it's even more fun to create them. And for those who don't like it very much, they can use only one accessory.

CONS:

  • It's a little difficult to find bathrooms and face the queues.
  • It's important to be aware and be careful not to be stolen.
  • It's a bother for who live near of path the blocks, for all the mess and noise or the traffic with closed streets.

Yet, it's a moment for to enjoy!!! Just follow the rules of the ride:

  • Don't die;
  • Don't be arrested;
  • Don't fall in love.
