Travel Opinion
 

Estado de Alagoas - Brasil

This region is plenty of contrasts: ancient traditions live together with modern activities.

This State extends itself over 270731 kilometers. It is also one of the smallest regions of Brazil.
Its estimated population was: 3.015.912 inhabitants.

Alagoas is a popular tourist point in the Brazilian coast. It has paradisiacal beaches with crystalline blue waters.

In fact, all along the littoral, the water changes its tonality from green to blue.

This State was one of the regions where Virgolino Ferreira da Silva, commonly known as "Lampiao", a famous personage, traversed with his band of ruffians. He was a kind of judge who imposed his own laws by scattering terror along the Brazilian north east.

In this State, Graciliano Ramos was born. He was the writer who painted, in a perfect way, the crude cyclical époque of sin the Brazilian north east.
