Brazilian Culture!


Hi! we have chosen another topic to talk about in our blog! Brazilian culture is a theme that is always present! It’s very difficult to talk about it because Brazilian culture is very diverse, so we’ll present to you some interesting points of some parts of Brazil!

We are going to talk in particular about some cultural aspects of the northeastern and southern of Brazil!
First, as we had spoken before, we'll talk about northeastern culture! we will point the music, dance and cooking.

In music, we can point a few paces as xaxado, forró, axé, and Frevo, and these rhythms are very typical of the region! In dance, beyond the rhythms mentioned before we include also some folk dances representing the cultural heritage, and are very nice!

Now, as we had said, we're going to talk about southern culture!

The north and south were chosen because they are very different!

We’ll point, again, cooking and dancing!

The Southern culture is very rich and varied, it received influences of many people as Italians, Germans and Poles ...
In cooking, there are mainly two things that should be pointed; the famous southern meat and also the “chimarrão” that is typical of the south and is not very common anywhere else in Brazil!

In the dance, we'll point the names of some dances and typical presentations. The dancing is very different from the north, and are very traditional! some names are Pau-de-tapes, and Balainha Fandango!

Tha’s it! We try to present some small areas of a part of the culture of our country that we do not have much contact! We hope you enjoyed! thanks!
