About your trip

In Salvador, more than anywhere else in the country, the African influence in the Brazilian culture is readily visible in the religious festivals and ceremonies; the spicy dishes with African names and the Capoeira School, where unique African style of ritualistic fighting is taught. Salvador is the center of both traditional and contemporary Afro-Brazilian art and culture, and is famous for its Afro-Brazilian carnival. Salvador’s artistic and religious groups are the foundation of an important social movement in Brazil teaching visitors on Bahia’s African roots.
