<p>This is a small sample of the Carnaval samba parade in Rio de Janeiro. It covers one out of the 14 parades to happen during two days and flashes of some of the other 13 parades. I would love to upload an HD version of this video but youtube doesn&#8217;t allow it without losing its view count and comments. So maybe in the future when they allow such feature, I&#8217;ll do it. NOTE: No arrogant or derogatory remarks, please. They will be promptly removed.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/SVpGJ8hBvJI/2.jpg" align="left">a very good Carnival in Brazil you find also in Foz do Iguazu.The Brazilian Carnaval (Portuguese: Carnaval) is an annual festival in Brazil held 4 days before Ash Wednesday and marks the beginning of Lent. During Lent, Roman Catholics are supposed to abstain from all bodily pleasures, including the consumption of meat. The carnival, celebrated as a profane event and believed to have its origins in the pagan Saturnalia, can thus be considered an act of farewell to the pleasures of the flesh. Brazilian Carnival as a whole exhibits some differences with its counterparts in Europe and other parts of the world, and within Brazil it has distinct regional manifestations. Brazilian citizens used to riot until the Carnival was accepted by the government as an expression of culture. That was because the Brazilian carnival had its origin in a Portuguese festivity called &#8220;entrudo&#8221;.This tropical paradise is alive with mad passion in every walk of life. Axe (achay)<br />
means energy in Brazil and nowhere else is the heart-pounding,<br />
rhythmic energy more evident&#8230; Whether its an impromptu capoeira roda<br />
on a street corner, bursting with music, excitement and the typical Brasilian<br />
lust for life&#8230; or the sound of loud raucous laughter between two<br />
acquaintances over ice cold beer in local open sided bars&#8230; Brazil-Foz do Iguacu has it all!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/QrL3A34nGSQ/2.jpg" align="left">Samba School: Beija-Flor de Nilópolis &#8211; February, 2005.<br />
Part 1 of 2.</p>
<p>&#8216;Beija Flor&#8217; means &#8216;Humming Bird&#8217; which is a beloved and omnipresent bird in the Rio region. The school is based outside of Rio (in a place called Nilopolis). However it is currently ranked the highest among all Rio samba schools. It has achieved the reputation of being the best school by a combination of outstanding and unparalleled artistic organizational management with a strong determination to win. It is the only school with a whole team of Carnival Designers (currently 5 of them) where as most other schools only have one. It imposes strict rules and has the highest expectations towards all of its parading members. It began its recent winning streak in 1998 and won again in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007 and 2008. In the years it didn&#8217;t win it has come very close and competitive. It is well-known for its creative extravagance and powerful colors.</p>
<p>The highlight of Brazil Carnival is undoubtedly the Rio Samba Schools Parade, a totally unique event in the world.</p>
<p>The Rio Samba Parade is the review of a fierce competition between the Rio samba schools. The judges and spectators watch the principal parades in the Sambodromo which was especially built for this event.</p>
<p>The Samba Parade is something everybody should experience at least once in their life. The event is broadcast live to several countries.</p>
<p>The Rio Samba Parade is very distinctive from all other street parades held at some other places in the world. It is not a street happening where people move chaotically about as they like, but more of a highly orchestrated show of vast proportions. Every parader has a specific role and place according to his costume in a particular wing, of a particular section of the samba school he/she is parading in support of. </p>
<p>Each year each school chooses a different theme for the Samba Parade. It can be a celebration of a particular period, or, of famous figures of Brazilian history. It may highlight a special event or speak of anything that might move the spirit and imagination; like a special animal, or one of the elements; water or fire, etc. The school has to illustrate the chosen theme through all its work:</p>
<p>• the samba tunes, which are especially written for that year<br />
• the richly decorated floats and costumes of their 3,000 to 5,000 parading members designed by the school&#8217;s Carnival Designer (the so called Carnavalesco).</p>
<p>The parade of every school is highly organized and designed. They line up in a unique way to present their pageant.</p>
<p>The costumes are extremely imaginative, colorful, elaborate and detailed. They are truly original, designed and made from scratch each year. They have mirrors, feathers, metallic cloth, silk and sometimes gems or coins. These costumes take months to make. The work starts roughly 8 months in advance.</p>
<p>You may think of the whole event as a tropical opera or rather like several operas happening on one night. It is beautiful to watch and the experience for the paraders themselves is so intense that the memories last for a lifetime.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/XbSaao5mRq4/2.jpg" align="left">The people from Bahia, are known in Brazil as those who most love parties. Almost every event is reason for a party, which should last as long as possible. Baianos do not deny this fame. The Brazilian carnival had strong influence from the Africans, All the samba schools in Rio must have a block composed only of baianas, women from Bahia. So, it is not a surprise that Salvador has one of the best carnivals in Brazil. According to Guinness, with 2,000,000 people (including 800,000 tourists), Salvador has the largest street carnival in the WORLD. While in Rio most of the carnival happens in ball-rooms and in the Sambadrome (which require people to pay to participate), in Salvador most events happen in the streets and beaches, and are free for all. As a consequence, the carnival in Salvador goes on, non-stop, for nearly ten days. Small groups called &#8220;blocos&#8221; pop up everywhere in the city, and they are soon followed by locals and tourists. A tradition of the carnival in Salvador are the &#8220;trios eletricos&#8221; (electric trio). Back in 1950, two persons, Dodo and Osmar (who today are legends of Brazilian carnival), put high power speakers on top of a Ford 1929 and drove around town inviting people to follow the rythm; it was a massive success. In 1951, the electric duo was joined by Temistocles Aragao, and the first Trio Eletrico was formed. Ever since, several trios were formed in Bahia, with much more sound power, on top of much bigger trucks; to follow a trio eletrico, just join the crowd, mind your ears, and let it go. Several of the most popular musicians in Brazil are from Bahia, and they do come back for carnival. So, you may come across free shows by Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Daniella Mercury, Gal Costa, Maria Betania and several other singers and groups; a sure presence is of Carlinhos Brown, Timbalada and the VoaDois.</p>
