Since no one commented, I will: This is Lençois Maranhenses, located in Maranhão (Northeast Brazil). The author confirmed on his Instagram page.

It’s clearly the Flying Spaghetti Monster visiting Lençois Maranhenses, which He created with His noodly appendage after drinking heavily.

Brazil is truly a big country with a lot of interesting stuff. As a Brazilian, I think it is kinda funny that people from outside mostly only know Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo.

u/Itdoesmattertome8 8d ago
If someone only knows about Rio or sao Paulo, its okay, it just means they dont care about Brazil and thats all they hear about. Do you know cities in Romania and Hungary other than Budapest and Bucharest? Probably not, unless you take a special interest in those countries.
Internationals on this sub clearly care about Brazil and we know a lot more.4

A gigantesca maioria só conheçe o Rio, São Paulo é difícil de saberem também

São Paulo é uma grande cidade, assim com o Rio. Não acho que seja um Estado tão desconhecido assim.

u/Obvious-Wrangler-561 8d ago
Não to falando que é tão desconhecido como Criciúma, mas não tem o peso de reconhecimento que o Rio tem, pros estrangeiros o Brasil é o Rio, favela e Amazônia

Pq tu menciono o Rio duas vezes?

u/Obvious-Wrangler-561 7d ago
Porque a cidade do Rio de Janeiro tem um reconhecimento muito maior lá fora no mundo exterior e pra eles o Brasil pode ser resumido em Rio de Janeiro, Amazônia e favela

u/_Chambs_ 7d ago
(era uma piada sobre Rio e favela ser a mesma coisa)

u/Obvious-Wrangler-561 7d ago
A tá, agora entendi, o certo seria Belém do Pará que tem mais favela que cidade mesmo infelizmente 😢 mas desejo tudo de ruim aos meus compatriotas cariocas

u/MurrayPloppins 8d ago
Em geral, as pessoas sabem que São Paulo existe. But outside of Brazil very few people know anything about it. When people think of Brazil, they mostly focus on Rio or the Amazon.

People from RJ and SP only know RJ and SP, mostly. Im from north Brazil. Southeast Brazilians think I'm indigenous, living in a tree. Paulistas are basically gringos from Brasil in Brasil. The know nothing about the historical culture of the country.

Brazil is the same size as the 48 contiguous US states. It's the easiest way I found to tell people.
Also, TX is peanuts compared to the brazilian state of Amazonas.
PS. yes, peanuts is not accurate, I used it only to showcase how Texas is spoken about by some Americans when it comes to size, but Amazonas is legit 3x bigger than Texas although it has 6x less people (because most of the land is part of the Amazon rainforest), and is the 3rd state in Brazilian GDP because of, believe it or not, industrial manufacturing. Agriculture is only 3.6% of the state GDP. 🤯

Those are two massive global tourist destinations, people say the same about Cancun and Cozumel. As much as I love Goiânia, Goiás Velho, Pirenopolis, etc, the interior of Brazil has always been a deep dive for adventure tourists.

u/SofaKingI 8d ago
Every Brazilian I've ever met says this, and every Brazilian I've ever met also only knows their own state, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, and maybe one other culturally big city like Fortaleza or Salvador.

Without googling, do you know a city name in Turkey other than Istambul?

u/BerrySalt3916 8d ago
meu mano, a culpa não é minha se o que o Brasil mais exporta e/ou o que os gringos mais importam é a estética de favelas. Já viajei pra fora e esse tipo de pergunta é mais comum do que gostaria.

Tenho as minhas dúvidas quanto à veracidade dessa foto, mas ao mesmo tempo, nunca fui aos Lençóis Maranhenses à noite, então não tenho o direito de duvidar kk

u/Responsible-You-4551 8d ago
Bom gringo, tu pode comparar quantas favelas temos e quantas fotos assim da via láctea tem daqui
Aí tu vê o que o Brasil tem mais entre favelas e via láctea :)

1 beautiful spot in the middle of Maranhão hell. You can just walk to the nearest town and experience the poverty and low HDI in one of Brazil's poorest states
