Residents play soccer at Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro
Residents are silhouetted as they play soccer at Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro June 5, 2014. Rio de Janeiro, with its white beaches, blue ocean and jungle-covered mountains, is still the place that comes to mind when people think of Brazil. Soccer fans coming to Rio for the World Cup will be too late for the citys famed Carnival bash, but they ll also miss the energy-sapping Southern Hemisphere summer heat. By all means visit tourist favorites such as Pao de Acucar (Sugar Loaf Mountain) and the Christ the Redeemer statue on Corcovado, but here are places that locals enjoy, too. Despite its party reputation, Rio is also a daytime city. Obsessed with health and good looks, many Cariocas, as the locals are known, work hard to keep tan and fit. The beach is best at late morning and late afternoon. The most popular spots are between Posto 7 and Posto 10 in Ipanema.Each posto is a lifeguard station whose number serves as a beach address.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, residents of Rio de Janeiro are silhouetted against the stunning backdrop of Copacabana beach as they engage in a lively game of soccer. The image captures the essence of Rio, with its picturesque white beaches, crystal blue ocean, and lush jungle-covered mountains. Renowned for its vibrant energy and cultural festivities, Rio is synonymous with Brazil itself. While soccer fans flock to the city for the World Cup, they may miss out on experiencing Rio's renowned Carnival celebration. However, they will also avoid the intense Southern Hemisphere summer heat that can be draining. Beyond visiting iconic tourist attractions like Sugar Loaf Mountain and Christ the Redeemer statue on Corcovado, there are hidden gems cherished by locals that visitors should explore. Rio is not just a city known for its nightlife; it thrives during daylight hours as well. Cariocas - as locals are affectionately called - prioritize health and fitness while basking under their sun-kissed tans. The beach becomes an oasis during late morning and late afternoon when it truly comes alive. Posto 7 to Posto 10 in Ipanema serve as popular spots along this stretch of coastline where lifeguard stations mark each unique address. This photograph taken by Ricardo Moraes on June 5th, 2014 perfectly encapsulates the spirit of Rio de Janeiro – a place where sports intertwine with natural beauty and local traditions blend seamlessly with global events such as the World Cup.
