Cidade do Samba. Tour Brazil by Locals to Samba City. Rio de Janeiro. Southeast

"Samba City covers an area of 92.000m ²,

 built by the City Hall, on the waterfront.


The choice of city location

 has thematic reason for existence,

 for it was there, sort of "Sacred Ground ",

 birthplace of the Samba Carioca.


The triangle formed by

 Saúde, Santo Cristo and Gamboa

 concentrates great tradition

 of popular culture of the city,

 notably the personalities

 and entities linked to

 the Carioca Carnaval.


The design of the Samba City

 forms a geometrical figure,

 with factories surrounding the main square.

 They seem like parts of a group

 holding hands, forming a large circle.

 It is as if the world of samba

 were embracing its ancestors,

 who were here in the

 seventeenth and eighteenth centuries,

 bringing the art of African

 dance and music,

 now incorporated into

 the Brazilian cultural traditions.


The thematic city will transform

 Samba School activities

 into a permanent practice.

More than a tourist attraction,

 the City of Samba

 established itself  as a production center

 of genuine Brazilian art."
