Before I came, I saw a lot of photos online. Most of them were taken in the slum environment. I came this time and saw more people. Especially children, eating and wearing are not good. I left without staying for a few minutes, it was not safe.

Brazil's slums are world famous, and some films advertise it as scary as a flood beast. But really close to a closer look, at best, it can be regarded as a little dirty, the architectural design is not neat. Look at the clothes and graffiti hanging on the wall, compared to many old towns or shantytowns in China, at most 50 steps to smile 100 steps, although most pedestrians are not dressed properly, but the words and deeds are not fierce. Shake your head, the country is really old sow laughing and crow black.

Basically, they are all dense houses, but the colorful ones also form a very beautiful scenery. The line is really scary. It is recommended not to bring too much money in the past, because the thieves are also more powerful.

Rosinia Slum is a world-famous slum, where millions of Brazilian poor live. Its houses are old and dilapidated, its community environment and security are poor, but there are many beautiful street graffiti, or joint dances. The residents here are painful and happy, and full of hope for life. But be careful not to bring too much money here. Robbery is common here.

The main streets of slums are not really dirty, but the amount of sewage rubbish on the ground has increased significantly as it penetrates into the streets and alleys. In general, however, the slums in Rio are far from crumbling and horrible as they are imagined. There are different ways of living in different lives, and there is no need to envy or despise each other. Everywhere you go, feel, experience, don't disturb, don't force... It is suggested to choose a half-day tour project launched by the local regular travel agency, each with about 120 local currency, including hotel shuttle and shuttle and English tour guide. Following a tour guide can ensure absolute safety, especially in Roinha, South America's largest slum, where the government announced several years ago that dangerous elements such as gangsters and drug traffickers have been eliminated. Most places can be photographed (but not close to people). Occasionally, individual tour guides warn that they can not photograph at all and suggest respecting their rules to avoid extraneous complications.

Brazil is a country with a large gap between rich and poor, and therefore has slums in several large cities. The slum of Rossinia is one of Rio's most famous slums, where houses are mostly old-fashioned buildings and sanitation is relatively poor, in stark contrast to the bustling city not far away. This is where ordinary Brazilians live, and many world-class stars come out of these slums, which is really not easy. Come here must pay attention to their own safety, especially the property, as the saying goes, in Brazil, if you do not encounter robbery and theft, it is a miracle, so be sure to pay attention.

The gap between the rich and the poor can only be more felt under the strong contrast. The VS simple wooden shed and the crowded brick houses of high-rise buildings are still very shocking from a distance. There are many graffiti, which are quite interesting and worth seeing.

In fact, generally speaking, there will not be scenes that you think you can see in the movies, because the tour guide has no feeling of insecurity, just like visiting a big town, you do not feel poor, you feel like living in a small place in China, those shops, food markets are the same, if you can have local familiar friends slowly climb to the top of the mountain one by one, Feelings are different.
