Brazil-Salvador de Bahia

The preparations for the Carnival begin many months before the event as elaborate costumes are designed and produced over a period of months. Carnaval, that many think is the best in Brazil, is still a street mass event involving almost the entire population. One of the oldest and loved afoxés (“blocos”) is Filhos de Gandhi (“Sons of Gandhi”).
