Your next stop is the Forte de Mont Serrat, an example of the military primitive style of architecture from the 1600s that provides panoramic city views. Then visit the Mercado Modelo craft market to browse for authentic Bahian handicrafts and souvenirs to take home.
Your last stop is at the Lacerda Elevator, a structure built to connect the lower city financial center with the port and market of Salvador. It was built in 1873, and was the first elevator in the country.
