Parintins, Brazil

  • Vibrant Carnival Costume with Feathers

Parintins sits on Tupinambarana, a group of four adjacent islands surrounded by a convergence of four rivers. Their endless surging current divided the once singular island into four. The sleepy town centers around its Square of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, home to the eponymous church and a thriving market. But it is perhaps best known for its folk theatrical tradition known as Boi Bumbá. This extravagant performance, part of an annual folklore festival held each June, is Brazil’s largest celebration after Carnival in Rio de Janeiro.
