Farol da Barra - Salvador´s most remarkable landmark
Farol da Barra (Barra´s Lighthouse) has now a very beautiful night lighting. During the day, inside its fortress, it is possible to visit a navy museum. In fact, the other next two fortress, going west towards the Bahia de Todos os Santos ("All Saints Bay"), have received night lighting and a urban refurbishment of its sidewalks, rendering a very good spot for a stroll, day or night.
As capital of Brazil during colonial times, all the fortress served as the city´s protection against pirates and foreing forces.
At night, the sidewalk is full with restaurants and bars, ranging from simple options to sophisticated ones.
