Pour ce qui concerne la Galerie en face du Musée de la mIsercordia la Galerie est interessante avec des expositions tournantes des photos qui a pu prendre dans de nombreux pays mais surtout á Bahia oú il a jeter les amarres!!
A mentionner : l'entrée au portal da Misericordia n'est pas seule, n'oubliez pas de visiter aussi l'autre partie d'exposition qui se trouve dans le Fort Santa Maria, à Barra.
