XV de Novembro Street, main street of Blumenau
The Oktoberfest pavillionBlumenau, a piece of Germany in Brazil
"Yes, we also have our "Oktoberfest"!"
Yes, I know the original and the biggest Oktoberfest takes place in München, Germany, but Blumenau Oktoberfest is the second biggest "Beer Party" in the world!
"Everywhere you look, there's Germany in it"
99% of the buildings downtown Blumenau have the German style. Most of the people are descendants from German immigrants and they teach German as a second language at schools and at home. We could even hear some people speaking "Deutsch" to each other!
"Beer and Glass"
The city is nationwide famous for "Oktoberfest". As you can see on the picture on the side, they even have their "Beer mug" phone, hehe. Their glass manufacturing industry is also very famous. I spent just a few hours there, but I definitely will go back!
