I love Christmas, but my favorite holiday is Carnival. Is the most famous holiday in Brazil. Carnival means abstinence from flesh. Many years ago it was a religious holiday, which the Catholics celebrated before beginning Lent, a period before Easter. In these 4 days of carnival, you can eat a lot of meat, drink and dance. Today Carnival is a historical holiday, but still very famous in Brazil. For four days, people wear costumes, parade on the streets, dance and drink a lot. There is no special food, but they usually eat a lot of meat to endure the 4 days of parties. The most famous Carnival takes place in the city of Rio de Janeiro and goes people from all over the world to see this spectacle. Carnival in Brazil and considered one of the greatest spectacles in the world.

How exciting! I guess the closest thing we have is Stampede, but it's nowhere near as festive as Carnival.
