There is nothing we can tell you about Brazil’s natural which will amaze you, simply because everyone knows Brazil… Everyone knows about the magnificent beaches (7.000 km), the warm climate all year round and the spectacular life conditions offered by this country. What follows is a brief summary to remind you why you should consider the investment potential of this country.
Tropical beaches
The country has got around 7000 kilometres of tropical beaches with white fine sand and crystal clear warm waters. Lush vegetation and palm trees attracting more and more tourist and permanent residents every year.
Hot summers and mild winters
Brazil’s climate has little seasonal variation since the country is located within the tropics. However, although 90% of the country is located within the tropical zone, climate varies considerably from the mostly tropical North (the equator traverses the mouth of the Amazon) to temperate zones below the Tropic of Capricorn (23°27′ S latitude), which crosses the country at the latitude of the city of São Paulo. Brazil has five climatic regions: equatorial, tropical, semiarid, highland tropical, and subtropical. Temperatures along the equator are high, with averages above 25 °C (77 °F), and occasionally reaching the summer extremes of up to 40 °C (104 °F) in the temperate zones. Southern Brazil has a subtropical temperate weather, normally experiencing frost in the winter (June-August), and occasionally snow in the mountainous areas, such as Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina. Temperatures in the cities of São Paulo, Belo Horizonte, and Brasília are moderate, usually ranging between 15 °C (59 °F) and 30 ° (86 °F), due to their altitude of approximately 1,000 m (3,280ft 10in). Rio de Janeiro, Recife and Salvador, located in the coast, have warm climates, with average temperatures ranging from 23 °C (73.4 °F) to 27 °C (80.6 °F).
Portuguese, Spanish English and French widely spoken
Portuguese is the only official language of Brazil, and is spoken by nearly the entire population, being virtually the only language used in schools, newspapers, radio and TV, and used for all business and administrative purposes. Brazil is the only Portuguese-speaking nation in the Americas, giving it a national culture distinct from its Spanish-speaking neighbors. However, many minority languages are spoken daily throughout the vast national territory of Brazil. Some of these are spoken by indigenous peoples. Others yet are spoken by people who are for the most part bilingual (i.e. speakers of Portuguese and English, French, German, and/or Italian, etc.)
Sight Seeing
Brazil’s large area comprises different ecosystems, which together sustain some of the world’s greatest biodiversity. There is a general consensus that Brazil has the highest number of both terrestrial vertebrates and invertebrates of any country in the world. Also, Brazil has the highest primate diversity, the highest number of mammals, the second highest number of amphibian and butterflies, the third highest number of birds, and fifth highest number of reptiles. There is a high number of endangered species, many of them living in threatened habitats such as the Atlantic Forest.
