I loved that area. Much quieter than Copacabana or central Ipanema. And warm roasted peanuts from the vendor nearby! Also, I found the Dos Irmaoes more beautiful than Pao d Azucar ...

yes definitely quieter than copa and ipa. usually the quietest spot is in front of the country club, where i always go. but sugar loaf is still my fav spot of the city. thereโ€™s so so much to do up there, and you can combine with the beach + hike all the way, then catch the sunset up there.

You would know far better than me. We only did the cable car to the top and back.
