The first earthTV camera in South America is located in Rio de Janeiro on top of "The Maze Inn". It offers a nice view of the town’s landmark, Sugar Loaf Mountain with cable cars and the Rio-São Paulo Air Shuttle winging past the mountain every half an hour. Furthermore, the camera shows Guanabara Bay with ships crossing, Niterói, the city on the opposite side of Guanabara Bay and the houses on the hillside neighbourhood of Catete below.
