About Barra da Tijuca
Barra da Tijuca (Brazilian Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈbaʁɐ dɐ tʃiˈʒukɐ]), usually known as just Barra, is an upper-middle class neighborhood (or bairro) in the Southwest Zone of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, located in the western portion of the city on the Atlantic Ocean. Barra is well known for its beaches, its many lakes and rivers, and its lifestyle. This neighbourhood represents 4.7% of the city population and 13% of the total area of Rio de Janeiro. Barra da Tijuca is classified as one of the most developed places in Brazil, with one of the highest Human Development Indexes (HDI) in the country, as measured in the 2000 Brazil Census. Unlike the South and Central Zones, Barra da Tijuca follows Modernist standards, with large boulevards creating the major transit axis.
