Salvador de Bahia de Todos os Santos, as it was formally called by the Portuguese is the old colonial capital of Brazil. The colonial legacy and strong African influences give the city a distinct atmosphere.
Salvador is divided into an upper and lower section and the enormous Lacerda elevator which goes from one level to the other gives you great views over the city.
The old colonial city with its cobbelstone streets, its many churches and beautiful mansions make the city a very good place to visit.
