nosso senhor do bonfim church印象
-
This is the church that mixes the Catholic religion and the method of worship brought by the slaves from West Africa several hundred years ago. You have to see it to believe it!
-
The ribbons for wishes tied to the fence around were a colorful addition. This church is famous for it's miracles and these are reflected in the collection of plastic hands, legs that hang from one ceiling as symbols of wishes come true. I would guess the ability to walk again etc.
-
We arrived at the start of a mass, we were given the ribbons and they were tied on our wrists. The occasion was especially meaningful to my wife who is unwell and was able to join the service. Soon the ribbons will disintegrate and hopefully we will see positive results

It's an important part of Salvador da Bahia! Coming and not visiting senhor da bahia is like you've missed of an important thing from here

While the church is unassuming, the folklore around it make it worth a visit. The room with plastic body parts and pictures of the supplicants for medical aid is poignant even if somewhat grotesque.

This is more than just one of the 365 churches in Salvador. It is a must-see/experience for those truly interested in Afro-Brazilian history. The church was built by a fraternity of freed slaves. It took over 100 years to finish. I could write volumes on this church. Suffice it to say that the history of African endurance in Brazil speaks volumes and this church is a prime example of the tenacity of the Africans brought to Brazil. It is also one of the few churches where Candomblé is as much a part as Catholicism. I, too, recommend attending a service here. During the Festa de Santa Barbara (December), it is more like a party than a religious service. You can take pictures, sans flash, if visiting when no services are being held. I recommend visiting when there is no service, and again when there is. An experience well worth the 3 or 4 Reais.

Great church to visit. A must amongst the 365 catholic churches of the city. Great historical site for the fervent Catholics. Museum of ''miracles'' is interesting to see.
-
Nice renovated church. The city took good care of the place.Great city view. The neighborhood still deserves investment.
-
Beautiful little church in a very ordinary environment. A little bit strange that there si a kind of a comercial shop in the church

A medium sized church in Salvador where numerous curative miracles are claimed to have taken place. The altar is beautiful. Off to the side of the church is a room with prosthetic limbs tangling from the ceiling. On one wall several of the limbs are antiques. Outside is a fence/sall surrounding the church which is loaded with the Wish Ribbons you can purchase adjacent to the church from any vendor. Many vendors outside hawking religious and musical goods, many which are associated with the Candomble religious sect. Be careful of beggars approaching you. The crowds can be quite large so take care watching your pockets and your valuables. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the upper level of Salvador.
