This tip is an icon of summer in Rio. Place relaxed, without ceremony, with a wonderful view, beer bottle, tasty snacks and beautiful people. Without cover or any type of fee, everything happens on the street. Of course all this has to be supplied in any way and is responsible for the Bar Urca.
Not one night, but a pre-night. On sunny days you can enjoy the evening with one of the most stunning views of Rio de Janeiro. Bar Urca begins to close 21h, standard good to go out one night!
The good of this site is that different from traditional bars where everyone is at their desks making it difficult to interact, there is not. All are very close to the short wall or standing. So it is easy to socialize!
Well, whoever wants to give one is pretty easy. The place is at the end of the 3 buses that pass urca (110 Central - Urca / 511 and 512 both Leblon - Urca).
Bar Urca is located at Rua Cândido Gaffrée, 205, Urca - Rio de Janeiro. The phone is (21) 2295-8744

Samba Luzia is an event that occurs on the terrace of a club until recently unknown, the club Santa Luzia.
The site is well freestyle.Nada much ceremony. Clothes stripped, pestíscos typical pub, beer bottle and a beautiful sight to Guanabara Bay are the climate and the charm of the place.
The event rolls on Fridays and is good to have a checked the weather forecast before you go, because it is an open terrace if it rains, like everything else in Rio, it's boring!
Samba Luzia is the Club Santa Luzia, Avenida Almirante Silvio de Noronha, 300 (next to the Santos Dumont Airport). Every Friday open house at 20 hrs, beginning of samba to 22 hrs.

For those who like to drink a good bottle of beer, eat delicious snacks, all in a very relaxed atmosphere and beautiful people, should go to the tavern Salvation.
From the outside, it seems just another house in Botafogo, but inside the picture changes. A bar in the style bohemian Rio. The second floor houses a pool you guys have fun.
It is good to arrive early because the place fills. Is the staff is there to make that beer after work and have staff that comes a little later to do a pre-night.
Well right there is the home of Mother and by the way of salvation is the same owners.
The Salvation located at Rua Henrique de Novaes, 55 - Botafogo

Well, not only the lives south of Rio de Janeiro. The suburb also has a very good thing. One is the samba Workers happens every Monday from 15h to 21h. Jeez time that ingrate!
This samba rolls at the club Renaissance in Andarai, and is frequented by many icons of samba carioca.
The place in itself is special, was founded in the late '50s as a place of fun and black assertiveness. The club has a courtyard with a tree in the middle, which seems to ask to have a samba by.
The wheel has become a big hit in the city, about to launch CD and DVD showing the artists who were present.
For those who like samba is a good tip!
If you is not working and so second is a day to go bad for you, roll a wheel held by the brother of Zeca Pagodinho Saturday afternoon and also bomb!
The club is located at Rua Barao de Sao Francisco, 54 (near the supermarket Guanabara) - Andaraí - Tel :2572-2322
Another tip of night out coming from the neighborhood of Lapa. It is so much good in that place instead of blog I think we'll have to open a portal so I can report all!
Well, the Odyssey Theater is a more relaxed, featuring a more alternative night.
The house has 3 floors. On the first floor space for shows already quite crowded
by new artists. And if it comes to show, nothing more logical that a good bar counter for food and especially drink. In a second floor mezzanine for those who prefer to see the show sitting there at a table full of goodies or a tasty sandwich. In the third floor has a great space for exhibitions, theatrical and a restaurant for those who want to take that good chat without having to talk louder than the sound coming out of the strong boxes of the first floor.
Roll top shows and new bands to the already established and in between the DJs rock the runway you guys do not lose their edge.
The Odyssey Theater is located at Avenida Mem de Sá, 66 - Lapa. It is soon after the Arcos da Lapa, next to the Circo Voador.
