They are standing in front of Sugar Loaf Mountain (Pao de Acucar). It  is reached by going on two cable cars. They are glass - I didn't like looking through the glass bottom while we were so high up in the air. One of the James Bond movies shows James in the cable car. 

There is a bamboo forest on the top of the mountain. The top is high up and gives an excellent view of the city. It’s fun to be there in the evening when the city's lights are coming on. They twinkle in the twilight.
