Description: Patio de Sao Pedro in Recife

St. Peter's Square

Central to Recife's flamboyant annual carnival celebrations, the Patio de Sao Pedro is famed for its beautiful colonial buildings, which are painted in bright colours. This spacious pedestrianised public square is bordered by a more than ample selection of restaurants and bars, although it is the wonderful architecture of the Concatedral de Sao Pedro dos Clérigos (Church of Saint Peter of Clerics) that draws the eye, dominating the Patio de Sao Pedro with its twin bell towers and detailed wooden carvings.
