Pernambuco Essentials

Pernambuco’s landscape spans from the coral-fringed natural pools of Porto de Galinhas to the 16th-century Portuguese colonial architecture of Olinda’s UNESCO-listed hills. In Recife, the state’s cultural identity is preserved through interactive museums dedicated to Frevo and the Sertão, the first synagogue in the Americas, and the Ricardo Brennand Institute’s medieval-style armory. These sites highlight the region's Dutch and Portuguese history, the artistic legacy of Francisco Brennand, and the transformation of 19th-century structures into hubs for regional craftsmanship.
