Museu do Homem do Nordeste



Part of the Fundação Joaquim Nabuco, this fantastic museum depicts the various folk arts, traditions, and history of Northeast Brazil. The displays are divided among three themes: the sugar-cane production cycle, the northeastern man's life style and the folkloric and religious manifestations. It's located in the suburbs, but well worth the ride out.
