What if the Dutch had stayed?

from Viewpoints – Placecloud · host Babak Fakhamzadeh

Jaboat o dos Guararapes Brazil We are at Praça do Córrego da Batalha, in the municipality of Jaboatão dos Guararapes. A córrego is a brook, or stream. The square marks the beginning of an avenue also called Córrego da Batalha, as well as the ascent to the Guararapes Hills. Everything in the surrounding area seems to reference the Dutch period in Pernambuco, lasting from 1630 to 1654, more specifically, to the two conflicts between the Dutch and the Portuguese known as the Battles of Guararapes, fought in April 1648 and February 1649.
