Shopaholics would enjoy shopping in Rio de Janeiro. This place offers a lot of shopping choices, from fun street fairs to air-conditioned malls. Shoppers would take pleasure in getting good deals on Brazilian jewelry, leather, suede and hip summer clothing made of natural fibers.
Other must-haves are samba and bossa nova CDs. Probably the most fashionable shopping area in Rio de Janeiro is Ipanema, which has lots of exclusive boutiques that are mostly located in Rua Visconde de Pirajá. Shopping in Rio de Janeiro would not be complete without getting something from Copacabana’s souvenir shops, bookstores and other trendy shops.
