From the heights you overlook Recife and the Atlantic, where the golden São Bento monastery meets brightly painted homes. A cultural bastion of northeast Brazil, its Carnival is famed for street blocos and traditional drumming, and artists' studios and craft shops fill the old town. From the old town's bell tower you overlook the sea and Recife's skyline, among the northeast's finest urban panoramas.
