Earth --->	Brazil --->	State of Rio --->	Rio de Janeiro -->	Zona Sul --->

Well, if you are reading this then you are probably in Planet Earth looking for a hostel in Brazil, right ?? ... so I assume that you know that Brazil is in a big continent called America (Yes !! America is a continent, not a country !!) ... in South America to be precise ... and no, neither Buenos Aires nor Rio de Janeiro are the capital, it is Brasilia ... there, in the southeast part of my country is Rio de Janeiro, capital city of the State of Rio de Janeiro (RJ) ... within it you will find the most charming Zona Sul (South Area) in which you will probably spend most of your time in town ...


Botafogo --->	São Manuel Street	Subway Map	Streets of Botafogo --->	São Manuel Street

... if you take a close look at the map you will find that the neighborhood of Botafogo is at the center of the South Area, close to the Christ, Sugar Loaf, Downtown, Copacabana and Ipanema ... just look at the maps !! ...

     10 min. walk to Copacabana Beach and the Sugar Loaf
     10 min. bus or subway to Lapa and all the Historical Downtown of Rio
     15 min. bus to Lagoa and the gorgeous Botanical Garden
     20 min. bus to the Statue of Christ the Redeemer
     20 min. bus to Ipanema Beach
     25 min. subway to the Maracanã Stadium (temple of football in Rio)
     30 min. bus to the Central Bus Station (Rodoviária)
     40 min. bus or taxi to the International Airport (Galeão)

HOW TO GET HERE:

From the International Airport (Galeão):
Take the bus from the company "Real" that goes to Copacabana (it is 6 reais) and ask the driver (or the money collector) to leave you in front of the Shopping Rio Sul Mall (just before the tunnel to Copacabana) ... then you take the street on the right (Gen. Góes Monteiro) and afterwards another right (Rua da Passagem) ... go ahead, the third street on the left is Rua São Manuel ...
RESUMING: right, right, third on the left ...

From the Domestic Airport (Santos-Dumont):
Take any bus (2 reais) that goes by the aterro do Flamengo: 474, 126, 127, etc ... and get down at the same spot that i have just described (meaning: in front of the Shopping Rio Sul Mall)

From Bus Station (Rodoviária):
That one is even easier: just take the bus number 2011 or 172 on the exit and ask the bus driver to leave you at primeiro ponto da Rua da Passagem (first stop at Rua da Passagem) ... then you just have to get back 1 block and you will find the Rua São Manuel ...
