Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Leblon (named after a French plantation owner, Le Blond, who owned this area) is an affluent neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro, just west of Ipanema, another neighborhood in that city. In the north it is bordered by G vea, and in the west by a towering hill called Dois Irm os, which translates as two brothers, because of its split peak. It's very much like Ipanema but even more exclusive, being the home of very rich, affluent and famous people. The beach is a bit more quiet and relaxed than the hip and trendy beach of Ipanema. Sometimes bathing is not recommended by the authorities, especially after rainy days.
