About Olinda

Olinda is a UNESCO hillside mosaic—baroque churches, brightly painted houses, and Atlantic views a short drive from Recife's airport. September to February brings drier skies for wandering the Alto da Sé and watching artisans at work; carnival in February is one of Brazil's most authentic street parties. Midyear rains can make cobblestones slick; carry light layers for ocean breezes. Pair two nights here with Recife's beaches and museums for a full Pernambuco introduction.
