Message from Priscila Portela

The Pelourinho, also known as the Historic Center of Salvador de Bahia in Brazil, is a vibrant neighborhood rich in history and culture. It was once the beating heart of the city during the Portuguese colonial period, with stunning colonial Portuguese architecture and a strong Afro-Brazilian influence.

Designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Pelourinho is a must-visit destination for those looking to immerse themselves in the colorful history and lively atmosphere of Salvador.

You will find woman wearing some traditional clothing (baianas) and if you take some photos they may charge you some money.
