Recife boasts a population of around 1,650,000. It was originally built as a commercial port but its white sand beaches bordered by palm trees allow for a lighter side of life as well. It is the capital of the northeastern state of Pernambuco. Recife has been referred to as the Venice of Brazil, so named for the many canals that cross it and the abundance of bridges. The city was named for the coral reefs that line the coast. The local fishermen brave the high seas in jangadas, crude log rafts with beautiful sails unique to the area, managing these in these waters requires special skills passed from father to son. Recife has a substantial night life as well with a good selection of restaurants and taverns. Of course the seafood is superb and fresh. On the more serious side it is the export point for products from the interior like sugar, cotton, and coffee.
