Members ihpguy Posted September 27, 2012 Members Share Posted September 27, 2012 Just found this interesting site on the internet. Globo has radar/traffic cams in various parts of the city giving real time views of the traffic - no biggie there - but for those wanting to know a bit about what the city really looks like apart from the picture postcard views of the beaches at Ipa/Copa, Pao de Acucar, Corcovado/Christo Redentor and the Parque de Flamengo/ Baia de Botafogo, you might like it: http://radar.g1.globo.com/rj/rio-de-janeiro flipao and TotallyOz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hoover42 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Thanks, ihp Which camera is closest to the saunas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ihpguy Posted September 28, 2012 Author Members Share Posted September 28, 2012 Barata Riberio & Constante Ramos is closest to Pointe. You'll find 2 Cafeina'a and a new bakery owned by the ex pastry chef of Le Pre Catalan - Guerin -near that intersection. Elevado da Perimetral near Ave. Presidente Vargas shows the view as it runs directly over part of the Praca XV, slated to be taken down before the 2012 World Cup, and closest to the historic churches on Primeiro de Marco and New Meio Mundo. There is no camera showing the part of the city near Clube 117. However, the camera at Aterro de Flamengo and Avenida Oswaldo Cruz does show one of the most beautiful city views with the beach at Botafogo and Christo Redentor in the background. Oswaldo Cruz is probably one of the chicest places to live north of Urca and the mountain barrier separating the beachfront neighborhoods.
