Brazil? History? |
Where can I go in Brazil thats full of history and tradition. I also want to go because its the homeland of Capoeira (Maybe if there is anything to see on Capoeira)
Thanks

I am not asking for a Capoeira course, it would be hard to learn in Brazil since I'm only going to go for a holiday.
Besides Im already training Capoeira ;) |

The city of OURO PRETO is very historic, as well as RECIFE or BAHIA. If you like Capoeira, then you need to visit the following: BAHIA, FORTALEZA, SALVADOR, RECIFE, and any other major city on the north-east coastline. |

Recife and Olinda. The two cities belongs the state of Pernambuco. Recife is the capital of the state. Pernambuco is one of the most cultural states of Brazil where is possible to find several manifestations such as: maracutu, frevo, capoeira, lots of souvenirs and handcraft.
Olinda is considerate patrimony of the humanity by ONU and you have the opportunity to visit many old buildings, museums, etc.
Recife also has important olds buildings mainly around the old downtown.
If you have time you can visit others cities mainly Caruaru. The distance from Recife to Caruaru is 130 Km. This city is specialist in handcraft and you can see many locals artists works on time.
Pernambuco is located in the northeast of Brazil distant 3 hours by plane from São Paulo.
You can get further information in one of the follow websites:

You're really asking two different questions. If you want to learn or improve your capoeira skills, you can take classes most anywhere in Brazil. People often identify capoeira with Salvador, Bahia, and there is a big scene there. But I learned here in São Paulo, and there are good capoeira acadamies all over the country.
As for historical tourism, there are sundry options all over the country. In the north, for instance, ou can visit the magnificent theater in Manaus, built from imported materials during the Amazon rubber boom. In the extreme south, you can visit the Jesuit missions in Rio Grande do Sul. One good option is the Estrada Real, leading from Minas Gerais to Rio de Janeiro state, the gold route dating to the 17th century. I think another answer mentioned Ouro Preto, a major mining city and a big attraction on the Estrada Real.
Given your interest in capoeira and history, you may want to base your trip in Salvador, the old colonial capital, and make side-trips to other parts of the Northeast.
Good luck |

If you go to Brazil on October you can visit the festivals of Santa Catarina, a southern state that has a large number of German-brazilians and Italian-brazilians.
There you can visit the Oktoberfest, a folklorical beer festival held in Blumenau, a city founded by german immigrants in the 1850s.
And Fenarreco, another german festival held in Brusque, a city near Blumenau, this fest was created to divulge the German cuisine.
Marejada is another Santa Catarina festival, created to show the Portuguese cuisine and culture. |

Well... Im brazilian, and im here, in Brazil, answer your question...
In all the coutry you cand find Capoeira, but if you wanna see Capoeira shows, capoeira on the street, you should go to Salvador. Salvador is a beautifoul city and have over to 2.000.000 citizens. Beautifoul beaches you can find in all coast long.
If you wanna see Historical Cities, you can go to MINAS GERAIS state, and you can come to
OURO PRETO
MARIANA
CONGONHAS
DIAMANTINA
SABARÃ
SÃO JOÃO DEL REI
TIRADENTES |
