About Folklore Day
Brazilian Folklore is a rich and colourful set of legends and beliefs passed down culturally from the parents to their children. Most Brazilian Folklore comes from Indian and African culture that got mixed up and added some European aspects to it. On August 22nd, groups get together to perform some Folklore dances and tell stories and celebrate the unique culture of Brazil.
