Russas is the center of an agricultural region in the eastern parts of Ceará. Not much of a touristy spot, it is conveniently located on the main highway BR-116, some 170 km from Fortaleza, and could be a stopover for a taste of the real Brazil.
Get in[edit]
Buses by a handful of companies almost every hour to Fortaleza. Also good connections to neighbouring cities, including Aracati and onwards to Canoa Quebrada.
