The largest festival in the world is Brazil’s Carnival, which is considered by many to be “the greatest show on Earth.” More than 5 million people travel to Brazil in February or March to attend this religious celebration that begins 40 days before Easter. The festival is full of live music and people dancing in the streets. More than 70 samba schools compete every year for cash and prizes. Dancers from these schools wear colorful and creative costumes. They form a long line of people in the street, called a parade, that starts in the city center and stops at the ocean. The festival takes place before the Catholic season of Lent and celebrates the last day before Brazilians must give up the things they love for 40 days. The festival ends with a beautiful fire show on the beach when the sun goes down.

The best transport for traveling between cities in Vietnam
I think that the best transport for traveling from one city to another city in Vietnam is the airplane. People can save a lot of time when they travel by air. For example, it takes them about 37 hours by train but only 2 hours by airplane to travel from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi. Moreover, it is much safer to travel by airplane than any other type of transport. At customs, people scan all passengers’ luggage through an X-ray machine before they get on the plane. Also, passengers cannot bring any sharp objects, such as knives, scissors, and many other dangerous items on the plane to ensure security. For many people, flying is relaxing. They can enjoy their flight with food and drinks served. They can even entertain themselves by watching movies available on the plane. To conclude, no other type of transport is better than airplanes to travel between cities in Vietnam.
