No shortage of places to drink and 'throw conversation away'
Cariocas say they love to ‘throw conversation away’ over a cold beer and, true to form, the city is filled with watering-holes and music bars at which to do so. Every bairro has its top Rio de Janeiro bars and pubs, but the highest concentration of night-spots can be found in the beach areas of Ipanema, Leblon and Copacabana and in Lapa, Rio’s samba heartland.
