The Pantanal is the largest flooded lowland on the planet, and the third largest environmental reserve in the world. In the dry season, from late May to early September, wildlife gather at its small lakes to find water. The capital, Brasilia, is a showcase of modernistic architecture.
The Southeast: Rio de Janeiro
