The Pelourinho is the heart of Salvador and one of the city's livelier nightspots. First, you can sample the local cuisine at a typical dinner and then walk around the colourful district and stop to drink a Caipirinha and listen to some live music. Salvador is famed for its Afro-Portuguese rhythms and vibrant Olodum music.
