SALVADOR
First capital of Brazil, Salvador meets the present and the past in perfect harmony and, taking into account the topography of the city - divided into Upper and Lower - it's easy to map it and glimpse the attractive wide open on every corner.
It is in the high end is the colorful Pelourinho, the historic district and listed by Unesco as a World Heritage Site. In its streets and alleys are hundreds of houses of the 17th and 18th centuries that house museums to Candomblé, and Catholic churches that attract scholars from around the world - in the case of the San Francisco church, considered the richest baroque work of country.
About the City
The mixture of races, cultures and creeds, which received generous doses of joy and syncretism, gave the Salvador a single astral attracting Brazilians and foreigners all year. It is in the summer, however, that the Bahian capital gains even brighter, with popular festivals which draw crowds behind religious images and of course, the electric trios.

RESTAURANTS
