This is the Brazil chapter from Lonely Planet's South America on a shoestring guidebook, available to Pick & Mix.
Powdery white-sand beaches stretch for more than 7000km (heard of Ipanema?). Dotting this coastline are tropical islands, music-filled metropolises and enchanting colonial towns. Inland, Brazil offers dazzling sights of a different flavor: majestic waterfalls, red-rock canyons and crystal-clear rivers.
