Rio is nearly as old as Brazil, founded as it was in 1565, just 65 years after the discovery of Brazil by the Portuguese.
里约跟巴西一样悠久,在葡萄牙人发现巴西的六十五年后,也就是1565年,就建立起来了 。
Several of the city's historic attractions date back to the transfer of the Portuguese Court to Brazil in 1808. Rio was the seat of colonial government from 1763 to 1822 and the capital of Brazil as an independent nation from 1822 to 1960; the city's history museums witness to that prestige.
城市中几个历史景点都要追溯到1808年葡萄牙向巴西移交权力之时 。里约是1763年到1822年殖民政府的中心,也是1822年巴西独立后的首都,一直到1960年 。城市的历史博物馆见证了这些岁月 。
