Overview In this experience, students learn about the culture of the river dwellers along the Amazon River. Then they explore the Afro-Brazilian influence in Salvador.

Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world in both area and population. With a country that large, there is sure to be a range of cultural traditions. You will learn about some of them in this experience.
Objectives:
