Salvador de Bahía Brazil

Salvador, situated on the Todos os Santos Bay, is the capital of Bahia state in Brazil. It was the first capital of Brazil, and its historical significance is evident in the city's Historic Quarter. Salvador is a lively, vibrant, and beautiful colonial city with numerous attractions and a unique allure. Pelourinho, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is Salvador's captivating Old Town that provides a peek into the city's early history. Here, you can explore the site of the former slave market and pillory, baroque-style churches, and colonial architecture. The Lighthouse of Barra, a relic from the colonial era, is one of approximately 15 forts scattered throughout the city. Salvador is Brazil's vibrant and historical hub of Afro-Brazilian culture, with African influences evident in its cuisine, music, and religious customs. The city is dotted with numerous terreiros, or temples of the widely practiced African-originated religion, Candomblé. Most terreiros welcome visitors to their ceremonies. The best of Salvador is experienced in its everyday life - strolling on the beach, enjoying its delectable cuisine, admiring the sunset, and immersing in its unique culture. Salvador has a way of captivating you and not letting go, so visit at your own discretion.
