Most people think that Carnival in Rio de Janeiro is the most popular Carnival in the world, but to Brazilians the most popular Carnival is in Salvador, Bahia. As opposed to Rio, where you sit and watch the parade, in Salvador, you get to actually participate in the Carnival. Carnival in Salvador is characterized by 24/7 partying. Two years ago it made world headlines as the planet’s most popular band, U2, was spotted partying and making guest appearances in Salvador’s carnival parade circuit.
