In this stunning night-time capture by Vitaliy Raskalov, we see the bustling metropolis of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Rio is the second largest city in Brazil (after São Paulo) and the sixth largest city in the Americas.

The city recently hosted the 2014 FIFA World Cup and will host the 2016 Summer Olympics, marking the first time a South American and Portuguese-speaking nation hosts the event.
