Hidden Gems

Pernambuco’s cultural landscape spans from the UNESCO-listed colonial architecture of Olinda to the maritime defenses of Recife. This collection features the 17th-century Kahal Zur Israel, the oldest synagogue in the Americas, and the intricate baroque gilding of the Golden Chapel. Artistic highlights include Francisco Brennand's reef-top sculpture park and the Paço do Frevo, dedicated to the region's UNESCO-recognized dance. Cultural hubs like the Casa da Cultura, housed in a former prison, and the historic São José Market showcase traditional handicrafts and local heritage.
