Terreiro de Jesus (Praça XV de Novembro)
Michelin Guide
Well worth the diversions
Civil and military monument
The Michelin Guide's review
Terreiro de Jesus, whose official name is Praça XV de Novembro, is a genuine melting pot of cultures: groups of tourists flitting from church to church, crowds gaping at the capoeira rodas, young hairdressers at work on benches in the middle of the street... Don't miss the staggeringly beautiful Baroque Catedral Basilica, the Igreja and the convento de São Francisco, or the Museu Afro-Brasileiro.
