After being in Salvador we traveled to Fortaleza. Fortaleza is similar to Recife and is the capital of the state of Ceara, Brazil. Fortaleza is known as the city of the sun, and is true it never rained while we were there. We stayed at the city in a nice hotel near the beach. The first picture is the view we had from our balcony.
On our second day in Fortaleza we went to visit different historical sites. On our way to the center of the city we passed so many clothing stores!! I never saw that many, like four blocks of just clothing stores. In all the other cities we were you can always buy coconut water everywhere with the whole coconut, in Fortaleza you mostly can buy just a glass of coconut water.
We also visited a cathedral Gothic style! This one was different from all the other churches we visited before. I liked it a lot it remembered me a lot to the churches back home.
So is part of our trips to buy souvenirs! and in all the cities we visited we found little fairs selling things or a huge place like Mercado central ( picture above) with a lot of little stores. It was like a labyrinth and they sell mostly clothes and table cloths.
The last day in Recife was a perfect sunny day. We went to church and walk at the beach. If you ever go to Fortaleza go to Don pastel and eat a pastel there ( a pastel is like an empanada) they are huge and delicious! The biggest pastel I have ever had in Brazil! So goo that I ate one everyday! Sadly I don't have a picture, but trust me about it :).
