Igatu - Andaraí - Chapada Diamantina // The Brazilian Machu Picchu - How did a village manage to reduce its population so drastically? Did it really become a ghost town? Why is this place compared to Machu Picchu in Peru? What are the charms of Igatu? What to do when visiting Igatu? We are in Igatu, a charming village located in Andaraí, in the Chapada Diamantina region of Bahia, with another super special report, full of curiosities and stories that we love! Even cases of UFO sightings (unidentified flying objects) have been mentioned here among the residents. Come learn a little more about the legend that takes over this region. Alongside Cosme, we were able to learn a little more about the history of the village, when and how the mining era was at its peak, and also see up close the ruins that remain of the busiest neighborhood that once existed there. After a history and architecture lesson, we had the honor of meeting the cheerful Mr. Guina, who, at the height of his 82 years, is full of health and energy, at the helm of his famous Bar Igatu. Anyone who passes by here cannot (and should not) miss visiting this cozy establishment, filled with good conversations and laughter with the dear Aguinaldo. To end our day on a high note, it could not be any other way than with that exquisite recipe! We met Rita, a great cook, who prepared us a wonderful Banana Godó, along with a super tasty Garimpeiro Rice. And there is a story behind these delicacies... come and check it out! Without a doubt, Igatu has left its mark as one of those places that makes us happy and enchanted at first sight. Happy, welcoming people, surrounded by stunning nature and a wealth of history and architecture. Here is our great travel and leisure tip! #Igatu #Andaraí #ChapadaDiamantina #Bahia ===================== WHO IS MATHEUS BOA SORTE? I am passionate about the cultural traditions of the Brazilian Northeast. To be more specific, the backlands, which I believe to be much more than a corner of Brazil where there is little rain. For me, the backlands are feelings, states of mind, of those who carry within themselves a smile, faith, persistence, courage and a little bit of mischief. I have a degree in advertising, and I pay my bills through art. I am a singer, composer, writer, speaker, educator, actor, TV host, radio broadcaster... A lot of things, right? But I can sum it all up in just one job: I AM A STORYTELLER.
