Armação dos Buzios, known as “Buzios” is a resort in the Lakes Region of State Rio de Janeiro, with paradisiacal beaches and crystal-clear waters and one of the most popular tourist destinations in Brazil.
Buzios was “launched” in the 1960s by French actress Brigitte Bardot, who recalled in a 2014 letter: “Long live Buzios! It is in this little lost and unknown city that I have been the happiest in my life! It had nothing, not even electricity - but sublime and wild landscapes, and deserted beaches, dream beaches! '[...] I have a great love for Brazil and Brazilians, I am like them, I like to dance, sing, I like the sun, the sea and most of all I like animals [...]. From far away I send you all my love… 'I like you!”
The actress has perpetuated herself as a symbolic figure of the city with a bronze sculpture by Christina Motta, today a worship spot in front of which everyone wants to take pictures.
The charming resort of Buzios with unrivaled guesthouses, seafront restaurants, elegant bars and the always wonderful beaches that have enchanted Brigitte Bardot, welcomes thousands of Brazilian and foreign tourists every year among which stars and world-famous personalities.
