The Largest Cashew Tree in the World
The Cashew of Pirangi is the biggest cashew tree in the world.
In 1994, it entered the Guinness book as the tree which covers the largest area, 8,400 square meters; larger than a typical football pitch.
Due to a genetic mutation, the branches of this tree grow outwards rather than upwards; thus when a branch touches the ground, roots are not created, rather a new ramification starts to grow.
There is even a gazebo located in the cashew, a popular attraction among tourists.

Festa Junina (Saint John Festival)
Festa Junina was introduced to Northeastern Brazil by the Portuguese for whom St John's day (also celebrated as Midsummer Day in several European countries), on the 24th of June, is one of the oldest and most popular celebrations of the year.
Differently from what happens on the European Midsummer Day, the festivities in Brazil do not take place during the summer solstice but during the tropical winter solstice.
The festivities traditionally begin after the 12th of June, on the eve of St Anthony's day, and last until the 29th, which is Saint Peter's day.
During these fifteen days, there are bonfires, fireworks, and folk dancing in the streets.
Typical foods and beverages are served.
As during Carnival, these festivities involve wearing costumes (in this case, peasant costumes), dancing, heavy drinking, and visual spectacles (fireworks display and folk dancing).
Similar to what happens on Midsummer and St John's Day in Europe, bonfires are a central part of these festivities in Brazil.
Festa Junina in other cities of the state, especially in the city of Mossoró which gathers thousands of people during the month of June.
