Sunday Hippie Fair


The Hippie Fair in Ipanema is a tradition in Rio as well as being a lot of fun and a great place to pick up all kinds of crafts, from silver jewelry to glass earrings to T-shirts to leather goods to paintings anything you can think of.
Don't miss out on trying typical food from the state of Bahia and enjoyed watching the ladies, in traditional clothes, preparing the dishes. In particular try acaraje, a bun made of dried black eyed peas, fried in dende oil and filled with a shrimp sauce. Dende is an oil made from a palm tree from Northeastern Brazil.Praça General Ozório, Ipanema
Sundays, from around 9 to 6 pm

Hi, Billi:
Your audience would love that awesome necklace (I´m wearing the 1 you gave me almost everyday).
