Bahia

Soul of Afro-Brazilian culture and carnival

← Todos os estados

Bahia is the spiritual heart of Afro-Brazilian culture, where the drumbeats of candomblé and the rhythms of axé music fill the air year-round. Salvador, its colonial capital, shelters the Pelourinho — a UNESCO-listed historic center of brightly colored baroque architecture — and hosts one of the world's biggest carnivals, driven by trios elétricos parading through the streets.
