Huge fair of Northestern traditions. Chaotic market with many shops and restaurants piled up, but it is really worth a visit! Shows, bars, restaurants, nightclubs, karaoke, grocery stores, craftmanship stores, cachaça bars... All piled up. Many Brazilian-northeasterners living in Rio gather here. Mind the entrance fee (varies day by day according to the shows)
