The Fortress is like an open air museum.
It started to be built on January 6th 1598 (Day of the Wise Kings), as a means of defense against foreign invaders. It was refurbished many times but still preserves most of the original structure, including thick walls, rooms for soldiers and the captain, a central chapel, etc.
Today it is one of the oldest constructed sites in Brazil which is open for visitation (a small fee is charged).
Besides a travel in time, the fortress affords excellent views such as Ponta Negra beach and the new Redinha bridge.

Tambaba is a beach in the State of Paraiba, on the northeast coast of Brazil. Paraiba affords the same beauty of the most famous neighbours, such as Pernambuco and Ceara, but is still much less explored.

Tambaba is the most important naturist centre in Brazil; for nearly two decades now, naturists from all over Brazil come to meet in Tambaba.

In 2008, Tambaba will host the XXXI International Congress of Naturism, organized by the International Naturist Federation.

For a few days, Tambaba will be the world center of naturism. Thousands of people are expected to visit Tambaba in September of 2008.

Fortaleza, in the north-east of Brazil, is one of the most popular destinations in the country. Visitors are attracted by the warm weather (Fortaleza sees about 300 sunny days per year), the excellent food and the modern infrastructure.

Besides, Fortaleza is the capital city nearest Europe, charter flights which go straight from Madrid or Lisbon to Fortaleza take about 7 hours to arrive.

Like most other places in Brazil, it is difficult to find information in English about Fortaleza. This site is a comprehensive guide to Fortaleza, covering beaches, culture, hotels and more:

Brazilians have a peculiar kind of restaurant called Rodizio. Customers stay seated (unless they want to help themselves with the salad and seafood buffet), and waiters keep going around with large skewers, each with a different kind of meat. No other place in the world boasts such a large variety of good food for such a low price (early 2006, price was around US$15 per person).
All staff are highly skillful, from the maitre d' to the person who prepares the meat to the waiters.
