Sugarloaf Mountain ((ポルトガル語:Pão de Açúcar)) is a peak situated in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, at the mouth of Guanabara Bay on a peninsula that sticks out into the Atlantic Ocean. Rising above the harbor, its name is said to refer to its resemblance to the traditional shape of concentrated refined loaf sugar. It is known worldwide for its cableway and panoramic views of the city. ==Overview== The bornhardt mountain is only one of several monolithic granite and quartz mountains that rise straight from the water's edge around Rio de Janeiro. A glass-walled cablecar (in popular Portuguese, ''bondinho'' – more properly called ''teleférico''), capable of holding 65 passengers, runs along a 1400-meter route between the peaks of ''Pão de Açúcar'' and ''Morro da Urca'' every 20 minutes. The original cable car line was built in 1912 and rebuilt around 1972/1973 and in 2008. The cable car leaves a ground station located at the base of the ''Babilônia'' hill, to the ''Urca'' hill and then to the ''Pão de Açúcar''.
