Recife is known as the Brazilian Venice, the city of the rivers and the bridges. It is marked for the architectural contrasts: the colonial, the baroque and the modern styles. The modern downtown area mixes up with the Quarters of Old Recife, recently restored: Santo Antônio e São José. There, a set of public areas can not be lost: the bridges that mark the geographic scene of the city, the Golden Chapel, the Saint Isabel Theater, the Governor Palace, the Patio of Saint Peter and the Culture House.
From there, you will visit the museum of the Northeast Man, a reference point for antrophology studies of the regional man, especially the period related to the sugar cicle. It has one of the most complete collections of playful, utilitarian and decorative pieces from the Northeastern culture. You will then follow to Caiada House, which tapestries have international fame. Finally you will visit the Museum and Ceramic Workshop of Francisco Brennand. Prepares your heart because here everything is pretty: the access, the landscape, the architecture and the gorgeous collection of pieces in ceramics, tapestry and painting. Everything this produced by one of the most consecrated Brazilian artist.
