Culture of Natal. Places to visit - old town, temples, theaters, museums and palaces
One of the distinctive features of Natal is its unique atmosphere of colonial times. The city has preserved many historic buildings belonging to different periods. The starting point of many sightseeing tours is the Fort of the Three Kings. This beautiful fortress was built in 1614. Despite the fact that it was built of quite common materials - sand, stone, and wood - the fort has managed to preserve its original appearance four hundred years after its foundation. However, the fortress has a kind of "longevity secret" - whale oil was used for its construction. Currently, part of the for is converted into the Museum of Vasco de Gama. The exposition dedicated to the world-famous explorer is very interesting and diverse.

Natal has a unique natural attraction, which can be called one of the most outstanding wonders of the world. We are talking about the world's largest cashew tree (Pirangi Cashew Tree) that was planted in 1888 by one of the local fishermen. Contrary to all the laws of nature, the tree keeps growing - for now, it is 70 times bigger than the average cashew tree. Given that this species cannot be called miniature (old trees can reach 12 meters in height), the natural phenomenon seems even more incredible. Today, the circumference of the tree is 500 meters.

Iconic cultural sights of Brazil
In the capital of Brazil, the fabulous city of Brasilia built in just three years is Santuário Dom Bosco. John Bosco, a priest who lived in the 19th century, was a missionary open to everything new, which is quite unusual for that time. He was canonized in the year 1934. A square church building is designed from forty high pointed arches. The glass of large high windows shimmer with shades of blue, and inside there is a cedar crucifix and a giant chandelier made of Murano glass. Well, of course, no tour of Brazilian religious sites is complete without a visit to the amazing new Temple of Solomon in São Paulo. The building surrounded by a beautiful garden is striking with its beauty. The temple offers guided tours in Portuguese, Spanish and English.
