Travel Info Has anyone lived in Brasil? Travel Tips I have. This past summer I spent 3 months in Recife, Pernambuco. It is in the North eastern region of the country. Recife, capital city of the State of Pernambuco, is one of the largest cities in Brazil (it's the 9th city by population, with over 1,500,000 inhabitants).. The Boa Viagem beach in Recife is one of the most famous urban beaches in Brazil. Visitors get enchanted by the sandy beaches with warm green waters and also by the complete infrastructure of hotels, restaurants and services which surrounds it. If you are in the mood for quieter beaches? The entire coastline of Pernambuco is dotted with beaches for all tastes, such as Maria Farinha, for nautic sports practitioners, and Porto de Galinhas, which is one of my all time favorite. Many magazines have voted it as the best beach in Brazil. The History of Recife and Pernambuco is unique. The contact between native Indians, black slaves and Portuguese settlers was very strong in Pernambuco, and left visible traces in the culture of the region; also visible is the legacy of the Dutch, who occupied the area for more than 20 years. This mixture of influences made the culture of Pernambuco to be one of the richest in Brazil. Not to mention the food, which is extraordinary wonderful! Don't forget to try their deliciously sweet coconuts right on the beach! I hope that you enjoy Recife and Pernambuco in your future travels! |
