Salvador is more than beautiful....Visited twice so far.....More than 3M People ( Country's 3rd largest city)...Crime is its huge problem (as  in most Brazilian cities) sadly

 

5 /7  homicides a day on average  in Salvador....Unfortunately

In Portuguese ( w Spanish subtitles) but easy to understand
