a Unidos da Tijuca was one of the last schools to parade down Avenida Marquês de Sapucaí, in Brazil, in the early hours of Monday, taking Portugal with them, paying homage to their sister country by mixing samba music with fado.
The school's plot reveals the era of Portuguese discoveries and legends, such as the monster Adamastor associated with the Head of Storms, and the four-headed dragon that terrorized sailors heading to China. It also recalls colonial times, and the portal UOL reveals.
Unidos da Tijuca was founded in 1931. The school has won four titles in Rio de Janeiro's private collection, most recently in 2014.
The official celebrations end this Tuesday. The audience will discover which school will be the champion tomorrow, Wednesday.
It should be remembered that this year, the Sambódromo in Rio de Janeiro celebrates 40 years as the largest stage of Brazilian Carnival.
