MARCO GALLUCI
6. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
In Rio, the beach isn’t just a destination — it’s a rhythm. The city is popular for a reason, and one can only feel the magic in it once there, fully present. The sea carries both energy and warning, and everything from the sky to the sidewalk seems to pulse with a golden glow. Time slows down, but the city never stops breathing.
From sunrise swims to the orange haze of dusk behind the mountains, the beach frames life in Rio like a moving postcard. The mountain's silhouettes remind you of the city's scale — grand and intimate all at once.
