Fodor's Expert Review Forte de Santo Antonio Além do Carmo
Salvador
Educational Institution
While this fort set at the end of Rua Direita de Santo Antonio may not win prizes for its architecture, its real draw is as a center for capoeira, a type of martial art practiced in Brazil. Classes led by different capoeria masters take place in the former cells, each with an individiual schedule, and begin every day at 6 pm.
