Formula-1
Formula-1 - the most important and most prestigious event in the world of racing, rightfully called the "queen of motorsport", has long become the dream of almost every rider in the world, and, in addition, is also the most expensive kind of motorsport.
New Year in Brazil
Especially for those who are already tired of looking at stable New Year congratulations with the participation of the same actors, on snowdrifts and salad "Olivier", exotic countries offer a qualitatively new entertainment program.
Brazilian Carnival
The mad energy of musical rhythms, the incendiary movements of dancers, the bright feathers, the shine of rhinestones and stones, almost completely naked exotic beauties, oiled with oils and sparkles, is a whirlwind of emotions that captures any splendid action.
Carnival is held at Sambadrome in the city center, where the most famous schools compete for the title of the winner. Each demonstrates his skill for 80 minutes under the deafening drumming and singing of his own anthem. Carnival falls on a different date associated with Easter. Officially, he starts in the previous Great Friday and continues for four days before Fat Tuesday. Although now these traditions are violated, and festivities continue during the fast.
In addition to official government dates, every state in Brazil has its own festive events. For example, B Blumenau, the city where German immigrants live mainly, passes Oktoberfest. This is a beer festival, which lasts two and a half weeks. A beer car rides through the streets, spilling a drink for free. But drinking a drink can not do it: more than 400 hours of music and parades accompany the holiday.
New Year in Brazil is at the height of summer. To decorate the streets with colorful illumination the inhabitants begin in October, the front view is preserved until the middle of January. New Year Brazilians celebrate at home, in restaurants or clubs. As a rule, they gather several families at the same table in a big and fun campaign.
In Rio de Janeiro on New Year's Eve it is customary to throw white flowers into the water of the Atlantic Ocean, making the beaches white. In honor of the holiday, a grand salute is arranged: the sky lights up with thousands of colorful sparks in 16 minutes!
