Walking through Copacabana and Arpoador
Esta vez la actividad de la escuela de portuguΓ©s fue la visita al Fuerte de Copacabana y Arpoador.

At this time the activity consisted in going walking through Copacabana and Arpoador, our students from France, Sweden, England, Spain and Switzerland started the activity in a very pleasant Β way walking through Copacabana’s shore and making our first stop at Β Forte de Copacabana (Fort Copacabana), a very Β historical place built originally to protect Rio de Janeiro’s coast from the invasions. Nowadays there is a very nice museum where people can go and meet a little about its history and also many cafes where people can stay in and relax.
After the visitation we followed our way towards to Arpoador, a place that is between Copacabana and Ipanema and very popular among people who live in Rio. Students could take a nice walk and also enjoyed the beauty of the place, the next and final stop was Pedra do ArpoardorΒ (Arpoador’s Stone). There, there is a very nice view from the whole beach and also Ipanema’s neighborhood, they could enjoy the view and also wait for the sunset talking a lot and having a lot of fun. In the end, they were one Β more time amazed and satisfied with this one more piece of Rio’s beauty.
