Salvador is not a small town. It was once the capital of Brazil and is the center of its Afro black culture. It has its own cuisine and music and is still one of the largest cities in Brazil.

Yes, I don't know how anyone could describe Salvador as a small city.

It's Salvador da Bahia, not "de" Bahia. Brazil speaks Portuguese, never Spanish.

I live in Salvador, and it's huge! more like a poor man's New York than how its showed on the movie nowadays. Very violent city.
