Underrated Brazilian Cities Worth Visiting


Eva Lea Klein most recently served as a tailor at Banana Republic in Boca Raton, Florida. In addition to sewing and altering garments, she assisted customers who spoke Spanish or Portuguese. A native of Brazil, Eva Lea Klein frequently returns to that country to visit family.

Here are a few underrated cities in Brazil that are worth visiting:

- Salvador: One of the oldest cities in South America, Salvador is full of colorful colonial architecture. Known for its celebrations, the city hosts the largest street carnival in the world.

- Olinda: A small colonial town in the tropical state of Pernambuco, Olinda is filled with colonial churches, lush gardens, and brightly-colored buildings.

- Ilha Grande: Located off the coast of Rio de Janeiro, Ilha Grande is an undeveloped and unspoiled island with clean beaches and numerous spots for hiking and snorkeling.

- Gramado: This European-style town lined with chocolatiers and alpine chalets was heavily influenced by German settlers in the 19th century and now offers climbing, hiking, and wine tasting.
