Tourism


Salvador: Land of Joy
by Christiane Pinto


Known as a land of joy, Salvador is the right destination for those who search for adventure, beauty and entertainment. Its beautiful beaches, tourist places and its peculiar cuisine attracts not only Brazilians but also tourists from around the world.

The "capoeira", a mixture of dance and fight and the "candomblé", a religion originated from Africa, are important traditions in the city.

Salvador is also known for its lively Carnival and other feasts which take place throughout the year, where the contagious happiness of the people from Bahia is always present.

Another attractive sight in Salvador is its beaches: "Porto da Barra", for instance, is integrated with the Salvador urban center. Beyond this one, there are many others around the city which are easy to access and will represent a relief to your eyes.
There are also hotel resorts which are located within an hour from Salvador, like "Costa do Sauipe" a real Brazilian Polynesia.

This is just a sample of the land of "Nosso Senhor do Bonfim". For more information, kindly access http://www.bahia.com.br/ and catch the first flight to paradise.
