Known as the church that grants wishes, the Igreja de Nosso Senhor do Bonfim is Salvador’s most celebrated church. Thronged by tourists and believers alike, this church made famous the colourful ribbons that you’ll see tied around the wrists of many people all over the city. These ribbons are meant to bring you good luck, so buy some from any of the vendors that will overwhelm you by their sheer presence. This church is known more for its faith than architecture; home to the Candomble religion, this church worships the religion’s highest deity. The most interesting room in the church is the Room of Miracles where people come and part with valuables in order to fulfill their wishes. The church is said to have such great powers of healing that replicas of body parts made of wood and plastic are seen hanging in the church, left by people whose body parts have said to been cured by the church’s power.
