    The capital of the Brazilian state of Bahia, Salvador is located on the north-eastern part of the country and is home to about 2.7 million people. It is probably the perfect example of the collusion of the African, Native and Portuguese culture with colorful colonial houses, circles of capoeira on the markets and the rites of Condomble.

    As many large cities, Salvador is also separated into two groups of rivaling fans of the city’s two big football teams, the Esporte Clube Bahia and the Esporte Clube Victoria.
