One of the traditional highlights of carnival in Rio de Janeiro is the parade of the top samba
schools which take place on the Passarela do Samba (Sambódromo), located on Avenida Marques de Sapucaí, close to the Rio downtown.
It seats 80,000 people and is about a kilometer long. There are speaker embankments at regular intervals located along the length of the passageway, to facilitate hearing the singers and instrumentalists of the groups parading. It ends at the “Praça Apoteose” (Apotheosis Plaza), where the famous arch is. This towering 3-legged structure exemplifies the genius of Niemeyer.
