Best places: Museums in Região Geográfica Intermediária de Salvador

👍👍 What to say about this little woman, who was giant in her actions. I think it's a fundamental place, especially if you go to Bonfim Church, which is close by. A place for many reflections where you can find Sister Dulce's story through her personal objects, a very important place for the history of...

18th-century Catholic church with elaborate exterior carvings & ornate interior.

Former home of writers Jorge Amado & Zélia Gattai featuring exhibits related to their lives & work.

😠 I dont think this should be called an Afro-Brazilian museum. It has no mention of slavery, afrobrasilian culture (besides religious relics), afrobrasilian social and political movements, famous black individuals, etc. Very disappointing in the city with more Afro-Brazilians than anywhere else. The m...

👍👍 So much to learn about Carnaval and great interactive installations! One of my favorite parts about my trip to Brazil!

Scenic views draw visitors to this lighthouse originally built at Santo António Fort in the 1690s.

👍👍 Love the place. The landscape and the turtles are amazing. You can clearly see that they love them and care about them. If you want to eat somenthing inside there, you have an open restaurant facing the ocean with a breathtaking view. You will not regret the experience.

Genteel palace-turned-museum featuring historical paintings & sculptures, plus cultural events.

125-seat movie theater in the Bahia Geological Museum featuring art & indie films & a coffee bar.

😠 I should have looked at the negative reviews as well as the positive. I consider myself to be tech savvy but what is the purpose of an interactive museum if it requires one to be able to speak Portuguese in order to interact? This could have been a positive experience and very informative if a simpl...

👍👍 O museu conta a história de Aleixo Belov. Ucraniano radicado no Brasil que dedicou sua vida a viajar pelo mar. Possui fotos, mapas, rotas e objetos pessoais que relembram a história desse aventureiro. Realmente muito interessante. Vale muito a pena. Tem um barco dentro do museu. O museu possui dois...

👍👍 Amazing place to be with your family and friends.

👍👍 Um lugar que conta a história da enfermagem que a faculdade não ensina. Muito bom o trabalho do monitor!
