🇧🇷 Recife - 🚴 Old Town by Bike (Every Sunday!)

Every Sunday, Recife transforms one of its roads into a car-free zone for cyclists and pedestrians 🚴‍♀️🚶—otherwise, bikes have to share the road with chaotic traffic. 🚲 How It Works: Shared Bikes: Found near hotels (but no guarantees—popular Sundays mean bikes run out! 😅). Unique Features: Adjustable resistance, no basket, bell on the left side. Must Park at Designated Spots! 🌉 The Ride: Scenic Route (minus a few construction zones 🏗️). Bridges = Necessary Evil (but waterfront views help distract!). ~20 mins to the Old Town. 🏘️ Sunday Market in Old Town: Thrift Finds: Scored a remade dress + earrings! Local Artisans: Handmade crafts, art, and more. Free Museums: Part of Caixa Cultural project (most info in Portuguese, but worth it!). Tourist Center Perk: Free passport + map 🗺️! #BrazilLife #Brazil #Recife #Travel #OffTheBeatenPath #StudyAbroad #FujiPhotography #SouthAmerica
