ABOUT RECIFE (the Venice of Brazil)

Recife is the Capital of the State of Pernambuco in Brazil. Recife’s name was derived from the Portuguese word for reef, referring simply to the city’s location alongside a stunning coastal reef. The exclusive Boa Viagem district (where Cleise comes from) is a waterfront paradise, situated in the center of Recife. It boasts the region’s finest beaches and upscale dining and retail districts. Often called Venice of Brazil for its many canals, bridges, and tiny one-way streets, Recife is a glorious and sensual city.
