RIO DE JANEIRO 22:30 Papaya & Tonka beans
STORY: The night, illuminated by thousands of lights, pulsates with an intoxicating rhythm.
Hearts beat at the same pace.
A riot of colors all around. A common meter echoes from the open windows.
and tangled melodies of all shades of samba and bossa nova.
The streets resonate with the energy of people intoxicated by the hot night.
Big pot, papaya, tonka beans, cachaça, dark, shiny leather
and the wind carrying the echo of the rainforest.
This is Lapa – the essence of RIO DE JANEIRO.
