Introduction to Ilheus - City Centre
Ilheus is a city of 221,000 people, located in the state of Bahia, Brazil. Much of the city's economy is based on tourism thanks to its beautiful beaches and rich history. Travellers can get here by flying to the local airport, departing on a Gol Airlines flight from Salvador, Sao Paulo or Belo Horizonte. The city's famed beaches stretch from north to south, with the Beach of the Avenue (Da Avenida) most convenient for those staying in the heart of town. The beach's excellent facilities include a convention centre, a bicycle lane and numerous sports courts. The most famous museum in the city is the House of Jorge Amado, the former home of the world-famous author. Visitors to the museum can learn about the writer's life, as well as some other aspects of the local culture. Guests staying at Ilheus City Centre hotels also have the chance to visit the Church of St George, which dates back to the 17th century and is the most prominent Roman Catholic church in town.other spellings: ilheus otel, ilheus hotell, ilheus hote, ilheus hotles, ilheus hotle, ilheus hotes
