Cidade Alta is Portuguese for Up Town or City High.... when i was living in Olinda, Brazil. This was how the locals referred to the old original part of the town. it was always a lively part of town filled with the sounds of Maracatu, Afoxe and Baiao

Olinda is a colonial town on Brazil’s northeast coast, near the city of Recife. Founded in 1535 by the Portuguese, it’s built on steep hillsides and distinguished by its 18th-century architecture, baroque churches, convents, monasteries and brightly painted houses. Originally a center for the sugarcane industry, it’s now known as an artists’ colony, with many galleries, workshops and museums
