The 2016 Olympic Games is being held in Rio and the number of TV viewers for the opening ceremony, to be held in the Maracana Stadium, is estimated at 3 billion. The Maracana Stadium is connected to the rest of Rio by Metro Rio and is one stop from Sao Cristovao (Saint Christopher) and hosts football for the Games. It was opening in 1950 but has since been redeveloped.
Rio is famous for many things including Carnival, samba, bossa nova (one of the best known genres of Brazilian music.. a fusion between samba and jazz) and beaches like the Copacabana, which is served by three Metro stations.
