Transcript

After a short journey,

You turn a corner and find yourself face to face with the famous Celeron staircase.

The vivid colours and intricate designs of the tiles that cover the steps immediately catch your eye.

As you start to climb the staircase,

You notice that each tile is unique,

Featuring different patterns and designs.

As you ascend,

You can feel the history and culture of Rio de Janeiro coming to life around you.

You can see the influence of African and indigenous traditions in the designs and colours of the tiles,

As well as the impact of European and Asian cultures in the city's history.

You reach the top of the staircase and turn to take one last look at the stunning artwork.

After soaking up the electrifying atmosphere of the Celeron staircase,

You continue your exploration of the Lapa neighbourhood.

You stroll past bars,

Restaurants and clubs,

With jazzy street art and murals decorating the walls.

The sounds of live music and laughter fill the air.

The nightlife in Lapa is famous,

And you can see why.

After indulging in a few drinks,

You make your way back to the comfort of your hotel,

The excitement of tomorrow's carnival festivities bubbling beneath the surface.
