Salvador, Bahia: Salvador is a Brazilian municipality and capital city of the state of Bahia. Situated in the Zona da Mata in the Northeast Region of Brazil, Salvador is recognized throughout the country and internationally for its cuisine, music, and architecture. The African influence in many cultural aspects of the city makes it a center of Afro-Brazilian culture. As the first capital of Colonial Brazil, the city is one of the oldest in the Americas. Its foundation in 1549 by Tomé de Sousa took place on account of the implementation of the General Government of Brazil by the Portuguese Empire.

Salvador is the capital of the Brazilian state of Bahia and the country's fourth-most-populous city, with about 2.7 million residents on the Atlantic coast in Brazil's northeast. The city observes Brasília Time (BRT, UTC-3) year-round; Brazil abolished daylight saving nationwide in 2019, so the clocks no longer change. Founded by the Portuguese in 1549, Salvador served as the first capital of colonial Brazil until 1763 and is regarded as a cradle of Afro-Brazilian culture, music, and cuisine. Its historic centre, the Pelourinho, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for colourful colonial architecture, and the city's pre-Lenten Carnival is one of the largest street festivals in the world.
