Day 4 - Salvador

Arrive: Thu 02 March 2028 at 13:00

Brazil’s first colonial capital, Salvador was the center of its sugar industry and slave trade. African rhythms became part of the fabric of the local culture, most interestingly in Capoeira, a mix of martial arts and dance, and Candomble, a religion of ritual and magic imported along with the slaves. Pelourinho, the historic center, is an architectural jewel, with an array of opulent churches – carved and embellished with an abundance of gold leaf. Much of the fine work was done by slaves, who once it was completed were not allowed inside. Thus they labored at night for a century to build a beautiful church for themselves – Our Lady of the Rosary.

Before there was a town there was an impressive star-shaped fort, begun by Portuguese colonizers on the Feast of the Epiphany, and named Forte dos Reis Magos (Fort of the Three Wise Men). This prophetic event was followed by the founding of the town itself on December 25, 1599, hence the name Natal (Christmas). Natal today remains a popular place for holidays, when visitors celebrate the towering sand dunes and crystal blue waters that surround it. A dune buggy ride is just the thing for an adrenaline rush, and Dunas Ecological Park, rich in flora and fauna, is crisscrossed by trails just waiting to be explored.
