Trancoso is without a doubt one of the most charming cities of the Brazilian coast. With almost 10 thousand inhabitants, this old fishing village is a mix of tranquility, elegance, livelihood and an astonishing landscape. It is such an original place that even the most skeptical falls in love with it. However, besides its pure white sand beaches with crystal clear water and the Atlantic Forest surrounding and preserving the village, it is in the famous Quadrado that the most authenticity of Trancoso is seen.
The Quadrado is the historical city center and the heart of the city. It is a place that ensures to keep its original architecture, transporting its visitors to the past. Around the main square, interconnected by dirty road (not so dirty though) ways, are the so known colourful colonial houses, old fishing villages currently turned into bars, restaurants and shops. To put the icy on the cake, in the other corner of the square is the iconic church of Saint John Baptist and a small football pitch.
The Quadrado embraces all its visitors and is a hub of charm, elegance and livelihood. It is a space where locals and tourists live in harmony, rustic constructions hide some of the best bars and restaurants of Bahia and where brand stores mingle with local handcrafts. The main square of Trancoso is so welcoming that it feels familiar even for those who have just arrived.
If you visit the place in the morning, you will be surprised by its tranquility. But don’t be fooled as it is towards the end of the afternoon when all the energy of the Quadrado is revealed. There are tourists from all over the world walking around while children have fun freely or play football at the small pitch. Moreover, there is another must-seen sight just behind the church. It is the Quadrado View Point. From there, you can observe the beaches of Coqueiros, Nativos and the Trancoso River, which divides both of them.
