The Gunpowder Magazine - Ilha do Mel
Brazil
Interior view of restored Fortress of Our Lady of Pleasures gunpowder magazine. The fort was built by the Portugueses, during the years of 1767-1769 in the north portion of the Ilha do Mel - Honey Island - facing the entrance for the Paranagua Bay. Today the fortress is a touristic site and museum, with all the most important parts opened to the public. Besides the administration building there is a 400 meters long trial climbing the Morro da Baleia (Whale's Hill) where the Brazilian Army estabilished a coastal cannon battery during the World War II and the guns still there.

More About Brazil

Here's your soundtrack. Okay, maybe they're not exactly brazillian but their music is awesome and their live shows legendary.Now, Brazil covers almost half of South America and its Amazon rainforest is the world's largest jungle... which is rapidly getting cut down. The country is basically one giant botanical garden with some bangin' cities on its edges.Brazil was colonized in 1808 by the royal court of Portugal, which was fleeing Napolean's troops. They didn't stay long, and Brazil won its independence in 1822.Its biggest city, Sao Paulo, is the financial hub of South America. Brazil is the "b" in BRIC -- Brazil, Russia, India and China. These four were labeled the world's fastest developing large economies in the year 2001.Brazil is known for three things: amazingly beautiful women, carnival, and Pele -- King of Football, Athlete of the Century, football ambassador of the world and a declared national treasure.Brazillians can tell foreigners a mile away, by the way their hips move. Samba is built into the soul of brazil and carnival is when it bursts out into twenty-four hour undying explosions of sound on every street.This picture of mask diving at the Taipus reefs makes me shed hot and salty tears all over my calendar, which is set on "January" right now.Text by Steve Smith.
