Buzios
(Brazil)
has been an independent commune
since September 1991. It has grown out of a fishing village which was "discovered"
in the 1960s by Brigitte Bardot and other representatives of the international
jet set and is now one of the most fashionable and most expensive bathing
resorts in the country (the "St-Tropez of Brazil"), with elegant shops and a
well developed tourist infrastructure. Its 23 beaches and 18 islands attract
visitors from all over the world. |
