The World

Balneario Camboriu is a city in southern Brazil that likes to boast of having the biggest and the best. It’s known as Brazil’s “Dubai” for the rows of sky scrapers that line its beachfront. It’s home to the three tallest buildings in Brazil, which are also on the list of the top five tallest buildings in Latin America. It also has the most expensive real estate by average square feet in Brazil.
