I-Jardim Botanical e-Rio de Janeiro
1008 R. Jardim BotânicoForget Copacabana beach if you want to swim. Leme is the continuation of Copacabana (so all kinda the same) but in the other extreme of the beach. Less people, cleaner water and the same view and environment - from those beaches close from home, Leme is my favourite.
