If you’re looking for history, they got it! Carnival or African/Brazilian, from food to music, slavery to religion, it’s all there. Eye opening experience for me, I wish America was more open excepting the history instead of trying to delete it! Lots of black owned shops and restaurants. People will try to hustle and sell you stuff, don’t fall for it. Take a boat trip to see some islands.
I felt in love with this beautiful city of Salvador de Bahia.
For me, It’s more seaside than Rio or Salvador and more cultural.
The old city named Pelourinho is very picturesque and marvelous with all the colored old architecture, there is musicians everywhere who give you the envy to dance with them.
You have to see the Forte Santa Maria where you have a great view of the sea.
For the souvenirs you have the Mercado modelo near to the port with a lot of little shops of gifts or souvenirs.
I have the chance to spend a night in“Morro do São Paulo” which is on the Island do Tinharé, 2h from Salvador by boat, the beaches are so beautiful, and the great thing is there is no car. You can find good restaurants or pub at night.
And finally, taste the local ice cream, Brazilian send this in the street, it’s so Yummy!!!
I have visited Salvador several times and I am always amazed by the charm of this city.
Salvador is a very beautiful and colored city with a strong history.
The afroculture is very strong with food, music and population. A real pleasure.
Place to visit :
Praia porto do praia beach
Pelourinho
Nosso Senhor do Bonfim church
Restaurant and party :
Rio vermelho
Bar pub I recommend (Because I loved) : Chupito
Always look arround and never walk on the street with lots of valuable. Keep smartphone hidden and in area where this is people. The level of poverty is still high and violence is present.
As long as you stay in touristic or crowed areas, everything is ok.
