Rio de Janeiro Sights

  1. Feira Nordestina

    This enormous fair (32,000 sq meters with 658 stalls) is not to be missed. The fair showcases the culture from the northeast, with barracas (food stalls) selling Bahian dishes as well as beer and cachaça (cane liquor), which flows in great abundance here. Bands play throughout the weekend - accordion, guitar and tambourine players performing forró, samba groups and comedy troupes, MPB and rodas de capoeira ( capoeira circles).
