Pernambuco, Brazil

Overview

Municipality of Pernambuco State, Brazil. It sits on the northeast coast, which is warm and sunny almost year-round.

Why visit: Ouro Preto, Paraty and Olinda — gold-rush and colonial towns of baroque churches and painted houses, several UNESCO-listed.

Things to do

›Walk the cobbled centre in the early morning before the heat
›Go inside the churches — the gold-leaf baroque interiors are the point
›Stay a night; the day-trip crowds leave by evening
›Wear shoes with grip, as the cobbles are steep and polished
