The tourist clings to the rock with all his might, trying not to fall off. However, today it is not the first and not the last. For such spectacular photos on one of the hills of Rio de Janeiro, a queue has been lining up since the morning. Welcome to Telegraph Rock, one of the most popular photo zones in the Brazilian city. It takes just under an hour to climb the one-and-a-half-kilometer long trail. All for the sake of spectacular photos that should get hundreds of likes. The most interesting thing is that there is no steep cliff under this protruding stone. So most tourists feel completely safe here. This place became a photo zone back in 2013. Then one local resident found the best angle for the perfect photo. Then word of mouth helped make the stone a hit. Tourists began to come in droves. And to make the photos even more amazing, local photographers help visitors. They know the best angles and poses, and for a small fee they are ready to take a picture with professional equipment. The place is so popular that it has also been recognized as the “Intangible Heritage of Rio de Janeiro”.
