Salvador was founded by the Portuguese in 1549 as the first capital of Brazil, thus Salvador is one of the oldest colonial cities in the Americas (North America, Central America, and South America). You will see Portuguese colonial architecture and historical monuments in the upper town; the Pelourinho. It was also the first slave port in the Americas and the African influence of the slaves' descendants makes it a center of Afro-Brazilian culture! Video displays how beautiful this town is: a deep culture, traditional food, famous dancing, colorful buildings, and unique locals. In the ending, I was signing "I've seen plenty Africans here, " which means Salvador is the only city that is filled with beautiful Africans if you want to compare it to other cities in Brazil.
