Bahianese Costume

Salvador de Bahia is such a gorgeous and colorful place! It is a blend of Portuguese & African cultures. Brazil seems to have been a successful melting-pot of races. But no place else in the country is this so obvious as here.
This is Brazil's best known writer's place. Jorge Amado lived here. Many of his novels were written here.
Salvador has kept its African roots up till today. But they blend so well into Brazilian life.
I find this costume really fascinating andI thought it would be nice to share the feeling with other Blippers.
