Pelourinho district, Salvador de Bahia, Northeastern Brazil

Salvador

Salvador, the cultural capital of Brazil's Northeast, is where Brazil meets Africa and the Caribbean. Perhaps only Cartagena in Colombia compares for colonial beauty and as a cultural tour de force.

Wander through the atmospheric cobbled streets, learn about capoeira, candomble or traditional forro music, visit magnificent baroque churches and museums and try the delicious Bahian cusine. Salvador's stunning setting looks onto the bay of Todos os Santos, close to some beautiful beaches.
