Recife: Igreja da Harmonia

Igreja da Harmonia em Casa Amarela.

Casa Amarela

.

This is the Market in the neighborhood called Casa Amarela (in English: Yellow House). The Casa Amarela Market was assembled in 1930 with the parts of Caxangá Market that was dismantled before, in 1928.

Saint Paul Building

.

I had never seen this little building. Maybe, the name in the top is bigger than the building! I guess many recifeners don't know where is this building...

.

Ancient building

.

Ancient and big house in Recife, almost a mansion. In the past, it should have belonged to a rich family.

Parede

Flanando pelo Recife.

De repente, as ruas do bairro de Casa Amarela se deparam com a parede de casas que sobem o Morro da Conceição. É impressionante essa imagem, o volume do morro e o volume de casas umas sobre as outras. No topo, a torre sob a qual fica a imagem da santa cultuada ali.

Ah, e claro que fios, fios, fios. No Recife, para qualquer direção que se olhe, os fios e os postes e o caos.

Loitering at Recife.

Suddenly, the streets of the neighborhood of the Casa Amarela (means yellow house in english) are facing a wall of houses that climb the Morro da Conceição (hill of Our Lady of Conception). This image is amazing, the volume of the hill and the volume of houses on each other. Atop the tower under which is the image of the saint cult there. Oh, and of course wires, wires, wires. In Recife, for any direction you look, the wires and poles and chaos.
