Olinda is an historic city in the Brazilian state of Pernambuco, located on the country's northeastern Atlantic Ocean coast, just north of Recife. It is noted as one of the best-preserved colonial cities in Brazil.

Olinda features a number of major tourist attractions, such as a historic downtown area (World Heritage Site), churches, and the Carnival of Olinda, a popular street party, very similar to traditional Portuguese carnivals, with the addition of African influenced dances.

 

O Carnaval de Olinda, parte do Carnaval de Recife e Olinda, é reconhecido mundialmente pelos desfiles dos Bonecos de Olinda, bonecos de mais de dois metros, coloridos e de fácil localização, que saem às ruas junto com os foliões.
