Maceió
Maceió, the capital of the state of Alagoas, is situated
in the northeast of Brazil and is a relaxed, modern city with
some of the most beautiful and alluring beaches in all of
South America. Add to this a tropical climate of endless sea,
sun, and access to the vast Amazon basin and it's easy to
see why Maceió is an ideal location for learning Portuguese.
The city itself occupies the tip of a curved peninsula, and
has an orla, or strip of in-town beaches, where many of the
city's quality hotels and restaurants are to be found. If
you don't like the sun or the water you'll be hard-pressed
not to be swayed once you arrive...and if you do, then welcome
to paradise. |
