CACHOEIRA Walking through the center of Cachoeira, the “National Monument City”, is like breathing history into every corner. The authentic colonial style of the city in the squares, streets, alleys, hillsides, houses and monuments, where the typical architecture of Empire Brazil stands out, coupled with the stunning beauty of the Paraguaçu River, allows you to take a trip back to the beginnings of Brazil’s history, when the city had its economic heyday in the 18th and 19th centuries, when its port was used to transport sugar and tobacco to Europe. Cachoeira keeps alive the most authentic cultural manifestations of its people, such as its popular and religious festivals, its candomblé terreiros, its rich cuisine and the Recôncavo samba de roda, a national and world intangible heritage.
