(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Memorial of the Brotherhood of Our Lady of the Good Death
This is one the great moments of our tour. here we will have the opportunity to talk with some of the member of the organization. As in Salvador, Candomblé plays an integral part in the life of the town, epitomized by the Sisterhood of the Boa Morte (Good Death), an abolitionist society of women. To commemorate the “good death,” descendants of the Sisterhood travel to Cachoeira each August for a three-day festival and ceremony that has been conducted for over 250 years that symbolizes a passage from the material to the spiritual world.
Terra Dannemann
After our delicious lunch we cross to the western bank of the slow moving river and visit the Danemann Cultural Center where we can also see world class cigars being expertly rolled.
