Recife is one of the most fascinating destinations in northeastern Brazil. The city was founded in the colonial period and it preserved the legacy left by the Portuguese and the Dutch people with pride. For those who enjoy folk festivals, visiting Recife and Olinda (the nearby city) during the Carnival month is a must do! From Boa Viagem - the district that names the beautiful beach - to the Recife Antigo, there is plenty to see and do. Churches, colonial mansions, art galleries, and museums hold the rich history of the state. The city also houses a multitude of restaurants specialized in seafood, and a lively nightlife, not to mention the natural beauty of the Brazilian coast.
