Delicious Food

Brazil is a paradise for foodies. The national drink is the Caipirinha and its national dish is Feijoada. As Brazil is a giant country where different cultures coexist, it would be difficult to choose one single favorite dish. Each region has its culinary specialties such as the barbecue in the South, the moqueca in the Northeast and the feijoada in the Southeast. One thing is certain, Brazilian food is rich and quite diverse. Brazil is a full plate for those who like to eat and enjoy different tastes and flavors.

Historic Cities

Ouro Preto is the most famous historic city of Brazil. Wandering around the cobbled streets and discovering its churches is like stepping back in time. But there are many other picturesque historic towns along the Royal Road such as Tiradentes, São João del−Rei, Congonhas up to the charming colonial town of Paraty at the coast that is located between Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. Last but not least Pelourinho in Salvador da Bahia is another historical gem not to be missed neither.
