#sundayspecial in the city of the trump of the baroque @congonhas_mg, and spending my time at the @congonhas_interior, which retains the famous temple of buildings, the Passos da Paixão de Cristo, given the recognition of talent and brilliance of the artwork Aleijadinho. Awesome experience trough the historical cities of @minasgerais_br, highly recommend this place...🙏🙏🙏

Beautiful place! Historical, well mantained and with an amazing view.

This sanctuary in Minais Gerais, south of Belo Horizonte was built in the second half of the 18th century. It consists of a church with a magnificent Rococo interior of Italian inspiration; an outdoor stairway decorated with statues of the prophets; and seven chapels illustrating the Stations of the Cross, in which the polychrome sculptures by Aleijadinho are masterpieces of a highly original, moving, expressive form of Baroque art.

Amazing santuary so many wonderful paintings and sculptures about Christians. You could stay there for hours, seeing each detail...

Beautiful place to visit, so peaceful. Very interesting to see and the museum is a must to see

Meh

Amazing.

(Translated by Google) The 12 Prophets of the Bom Jesus de Matosinhos Sanctuary are simply splendid. Each sculpture has a unique expression — no two are the same. Master Antônio Francisco Lisboa, known as Aleijadinho, demonstrated an impressive talent. In my opinion, sculpting with such detail in soapstone, which is such a fragile material, is truly extraordinary. Right next to the Sanctuary is the Congonhas Museum, which complements the visit by explaining the entire history and symbolism of the Bom Jesus de Matosinhos Sanctuary. It is definitely worth a visit! (Original) Os 12 Profetas do Santuário do Bom Jesus de Matosinhos são simplesmente esplêndidos. Cada escultura tem uma expressão única — nenhuma é igual à outra. Mestre Antônio Francisco Lisboa, o Aleijadinho, demonstrou um talento impressionante. Na minha opinião, esculpir com tanto detalhe em pedra-sabão, que é um material tão frágil, é algo realmente extraordinário. Logo ao lado do Santuário, está o Museu de Congonhas, que complementa a visita ao explicar toda a história e simbolismo do Santuário do Senhor Bom Jesus de Matosinhos. Vale muito a pena conhecer!

(Translated by Google) The place is beautiful, truly the most beautiful spot in the city of Congonhas. Check the church's opening hours and take the opportunity to see this gem. This center of Congonhas is very well preserved and is worth the visit. (Original) O lugar é belíssimo, realmente o ponto mais bonito da cidade de Congonhas. Verifique o horário de funcionamento da igreja e aproveite para ver essa preciosidade. Este centro de Congonhas está super bem preservado e vale a pena.

(Translated by Google) In my opinion, Congonhas is not a very pretty city, but it is worth visiting the church and the work of Aleijadinho. It is a good idea to check if the church is open before you go. (Original) Na minha opinião, Congonhas não é uma cidade tão bonita, mas vale a pena visitar a igreja e a obra de Aleijadinho. É bom verificar, antes de ir, se a igreja está aberta.

(Translated by Google) Quiet place, accessible bathrooms, restaurants nearby, a good walk to take photos and laugh a little, an hour from BH (Original) Lugar tranquilo, banheiros acessíveis , restaurantes perto, um bom passeio pra tirar fotos e rir um pouco, a uma hora de BH

(Translated by Google) Incredible beauty and sadness at the same time. - The sculpted statues of the 12 are incredible, and the church is also magnificent. - Sadness is remembering and imagining its construction by slaves. (Original) Beleza Incrível e Tristeza ao mesmo tempo. - As estátuas dos 12 esculpidas são incríveis e a Igreja tambem é Magnífica. - Tristeza é lembrar e imaginar a construção dela através dos escravos.

(Translated by Google) The church is beautiful, well-kept, and has excellent works of art. I really enjoyed it. (Original) A igreja é linda, bem cuidada, excelentes obras de arte. Curti muito.

(Translated by Google) One of Aleijadinho's most important works, made of soapstone, is located in the municipality of Congonhas, Minas Gerais, at the entrance to the Bom Jesus de Matosinhos church. If you appreciate sculpture and haven't seen it before, I recommend visiting as soon as possible, as the over 200-year-old work is aging. Unfortunately, during my visit, on Sunday, July 7th, the church was without power, and all the chapels (where several other important works are on display) were closed for renovation. (Original) Uma das principais obras de Aleijadinho, no município de Congonhas/MG , feitas em pedra sabão, na entrada da igreja do Bom Jesus de Matosinhos. Se você aprecia escultura e não conhece, aconselho visitar o quanto antes pois a obra de mais de 200 anos, sucumbe ao tempo. Infelizmente, na minha visita, domingo dia 07/07, a igreja estava sem energia elétrica e todas as capelas ( onde estão expostas várias outras obras importantes) estavam fechadas, em reforma.

Cool plaza with lots of museums around. They host music, food, and culture festivals.

If you like the history behind, that's the place to start... Still clean, keeps its visuals, however, some street sellers can be annoying.

Amazing place! Culturally must visit! All the best of Minas Gerais can be found here. Good quality souvenires and perfect ambience. Historically rich! Architecturally fascinating.

It’s a cool cool spot. There were some artisan hippies in there. I bought a cool little ring from and they have like an awesome gem museum on one side of the park on the other side. They have like an art museum. It’s like the old governors mansion it’s really spectacular a lot of history a lot of beauty overall just a gorgeous park in area.

Beautiful place for a stroll, any time of day. Bonus if you read up on the historical value of the buildings you see surrounding the park itself. Sidenote: there's a very kind man just off the south side of the park, on Avenida Cristovao Colombo, who sells chicletes and other boxed treats from his wheelchair, to passing motorists. He's been selling from this very same corner, from his wheelchair, for over 30 years.

Beautiful park both during the day and at night. Very cool museums and sights around the border. Look out for free entry days into the museums!

Beautiful square in the center of Belo Horizonte inspired on the gardens of the Versailles palace, it is one of the most relevant ones. It has the so called cultural circuit around it, including different museums, knowledge institutions and at least one theater. The CCBB (cultural center of Banco do Brasil) stays nearby and is a must do visit. Also notice the wavy building, it is Oscar Niemeyer’s project. And such a beautiful one. The palm trees lane is so beautiful!

Free entry. Some really interesting and original audio-visual presentations of historical information. I really like the room full pf talking portraits with spinning chairs.

The best museum in Belo! Fantastic exhibitions and a location with a spirit.

No English translation but a lovely museum to stroll through. The representation of the culture and history is all understandable without English. Entrance is free. Recommend.

One of the best museums I've seen in a while. Relatively big and a lot of interactive expositions. You can learn a lot(if you understand Portuguese) about the history of the region

This is a betiful building on the main square. The museum has a permanent Salgado exhibition, this is a spectacular showcase of his work. There are exhibits that explain the history of the area. Many in English as well as Portuguese. A great place to visit to understand the area.

Excelente lugar para visitar e ver muito sobre a cultura e história do belo estado de Minas Gerais. Totalmente vale a pena visitar! Excellent place to visit and see a a lot about the culture and history of the beautiful state of Minas Gerais. Totally worth visiting!

Awesome museum with very interactive exhibitions with english note cards!!!

Free entrance but 15 min to obtain free ticket! Artists are good Clean washrooms and nice!

The building and the exhibition are superb yet the visitation was uneasy. The exhibition rooms are icy due the AC. I know that's need to maintain the pieces, but it was too low. Even the employees were attared in winter clothes, including gloves. We were unable to finish the exhibition due the AC.

I've been here for two exhibits, and both were fantastic. Great location to access other tourist spots like Praca Liberdade and see some interesting architecture.

Great free museum in interesting old building. Intriguing collection of Brazilian art. Care and restaurant too.

Wonder place to visit in Belo Horizonte and in any city (main cities in Brazil have the Cultural Center of Banco do Brazil). Entry is free. Here there is an interior terrace shared by two cafes/ restaurants, with very nice ambiance; the prices are a bit too high, so it is not for the backpacker, but it is nice to have a different experience. The exhibits are usually well curated. Currently there are two, one of Antonio Poteiro, Brazilian popular artist and one of Man Ray, the famous photographer. Both very interesting and, again, with free entrance. Coming here gives you the opportunity to enjoy the Freedom square (Praça da Liberdade) where it is settled. Don’t miss the wavy building of Oscar Niemeyer, renown Brazilian modernist architect.

Most people working there was very nice and accommodating. I’m a beginner Portuguese speaker and when they see me struggling, they very kindly spoke slowly and helped me with what I needed. The exhibition was great and the interior of the building is stunning.

It is a nice and cool place/museum to visit in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Located in the downtown/center of the city it is also close to some other local places that are worth visiting. Every month it has differents themes expositions that are also very cool. Really enjoyed it!

Mercado Central in Belo Horizonte is a vibrant and authentic experience you won’t want to miss! 🇧🇷✨ It’s the perfect place to explore the rich culture and flavors of Minas Gerais. From delicious cheeses, sweets, and artisanal cachaça to handmade crafts and souvenirs, every corner is full of charm. The friendly vendors and lively atmosphere make it a joy to wander through. Whether you’re shopping, tasting local treats, or just soaking in the vibe — this market is a true gem in BH!

It's always a great experience to come here. They have numerous shops with food, drinks, and various products, from cheese, crafts, souvenirs, and much more. Try the local dishes, such as the "pão de queijo", "empada", etc.

If you want to taste the soul of Minas Gerais, Mercado Central de Belo Horizonte is mandatory. Since 1929 this indoor market has occupied an entire city block and grown into a cultural hub with over 400 stalls offering food, crafts, produce, cachaça, and more. The tradition of Queijo de Minas, recently recognized by UNESCO as part of Brazil’s intangible cultural heritage, is everywhere. You will find every variation fresh, semi aged, and aged made and sold by local cheesemakers. Walking through the aisles, you see that this is not just commerce. It is a snapshot of Minas’s diversity, where vendors of Portuguese, African, and local heritage sell side by side. You hear local accents, smell roasting coffee, and taste sweets like doce de leite or goiabada. The number of micro bars and snack counters filled with locals eating feijão tropeiro, pão de queijo and having a beer shows how deeply this market is woven into daily life. What separates it from many Latin American markets is its cleanliness and organization. Floors are polished, stalls are tidy and vendors take pride in presentation. At the same time, it does not feel artificial. It still has that energy and authenticity that makes a market alive. Where it falls short is in the live animal section, which feels cramped, and the odd rule that bans bicycle parking even though the city promotes cycling. These are outdated issues that should be fixed. The structure itself has presence, with steel beams, high ceilings and historic character. In the 1960s the market faced closure but local merchants took control and rebuilt it as a covered space in just 15 days, keeping it alive for generations. Mercado Central is not just a food hall. It is a living panorama of Minas Gerais culture, flavor and identity. Whether you come for cheese, coffee, crafts or conversation, you leave feeling connected to Belo Horizonte’s beating heart.

A very nice experience. Very lively and authentic. we had no problems with safety at all and saw guards in a very discreet way so this was not influencing the experience was the last day of our stay in Brazil and we bought a lot of interesting things to bring home.

What an amazing place! Full of randomly stuff, amazing stuff, good food, beautiful souvenirs and nice people

Wow! This market is enormous and has everything! They have all kinds of foods, antiques, souvenirs, cafes, bars, spices, sauces, household items, and even animals! A must visit!

Great place to visit and shop. Lots of restaurants and bars. Some markets but this is not the place for local produce. Tried to find great Pao de Queijo but everything was average.

When I went there, only a small fraction of the palace was open, rest was closed for renovations and performance that night. Turned out to be a compete downer. Giving the benefit of doubt.

Always great shows, and plenty of different venues. The main theater is very comfortable and great for operas. The acoustics are excellent. The central location is also really good, and it's usually possible to park at the avenue in front of it after 8:00 p.m.

A beautiful building that hosts some really nice art exhibits. Being near the municipal park, it is home to a few stray cats in the lower cafe. All are friendly. Sometimes you find a few strange people wondering around, but all in all it is a nice central location to meet with friends.

beautiful modern art, lovely layout, and a cafeteria downstairs that has cat visitors and a lunch option for a very modest price (I recall 13 reais for a plate of food with rice meat potatoes and greens)

Seats are old and uncomfortable. People film during show and no staff around to stop them. The air-conditioning is never turned on so it is hot as hell.

One of the most traditional venues for concerts and theater of the city. Film festivals and all kinds of art exhibits ard also held here.

Mirante do Mangabeiras is an absolute gem in Belo Horizonte! Located at the edge of the Serra do Curral, this scenic overlook offers breathtaking panoramic views of the entire city —especially stunning at sunset. It’s a peaceful and well-maintained spot, perfect for photos, relaxation, and connecting with nature. The walkway and viewing platforms are safe and accessible, and there’s often a refreshing breeze that makes the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for visitors and locals alike who want to experience BH from above!

Nice place to watch the sunset, rather simple and most of the time crowed, but the view is worth it.

We went here for a lovely end to the day during a birthday celebration for my husband - 30 years! It was so inspiring and beautiful. Everyone there was in awe of the cloud and the view created by the Almighty! The birds are singing, and there was a crowd of interesting black birds with red spots in their necks. It feels like nature can rest here! And we can, too. If you are looking for a peaceful addition to your date or family outing, look no further!

Very lovely and beautiful place, the view was gorgeous and we are able to see most of the city, the mist might have been heavy, but it was a very nice view, the pictures can be great, I totally recommend it especially in group.

Who doesn’t like view points !!! From this place we can visualize the city of Belo Horizonte and enjoy its view. We don’t need any tickets to purchase. It’s absolutely free. We cannot drive with car to this point; we need to park the car at the entrance and walk a bit. The sunset from this point will be stunning and worth the visit.

GREAT SUNSET VIEWS!!! If you want to get the views of entire Belo Metropolis area while enjoying the stunning sunset, this is the place for you. The park is open from Dusk to Dawn. The gated location is easily accessible by Uber followed by a short walk to the viewing area. There is no entry fee for the park! The area is clean, safe and family friendly. However the only thing missing is there are no food stalls. So plan to bring drinking water and snacks to enjoy with the view! There are public restrooms but those are not too clean either. Overall a little inconvenient but the views definitely make up for it!

Amazing views of the city, a taste of exclusive lifestyle passing nearby manicured villas, and an exhilarating zipline jump, for about R$60 if you dare! The Mirante is free to the public, had public bathrooms, and nearby vendors selling snacks and drinks. A very hilly climb up from the Parque das Mangabeiras, so drive, or wear comfortable shoes.

Beautiful churches. Great restaurants and shops. People are friendly. La Villa Bahia hotel was beautiful, comfortable and great service!!! Breakfast was delicious every day. Everyone on staff was so nice!

It's very nice seeing that so important part of the History and culture of Brasil.. A good experience, stai ng there!

Great place to visit.

Place beautiful, with natureza

Beautiful monastery in the middle of the jungle. Not easy to get here without a car. Rooms are basic but some offer a great view. Might be worth asking at the reception if / when they are ready.

Stayed 1 night here. It’s open to day visits but I wouldn’t bother with that, as wherever you set off from it must be a long drive in, and you don’t get to stay for a chance to see the maned wolves in the evening. Seeing the wolves is magical. Beautiful countryside location. Excellent trails for hikes up to 6km (12km out and back) without a guide, or further up onto the ridges with a guide. 3 good meals per day. Simple, clean rooms, in keeping with it being a religious sanctuary. Games room with a useable pool table. WiFi is decent in some parts of the premises. The church seemed quite nice to me; less garish than the others we saw in Minas, and this one has some nice stained glass windows. There’s a museum I didn’t go in. Highlights are the hiking, the nature, the food, and by a country mile: the wolves, which provide a truly incredible experience. We saw 1 wolf, a female, but apparently her mate visits too, sometimes. If you’d like a couple of tips, do read on. If not, now would be a good time to stop reading. 1-Bring some large bottles of water. There’s an empty fridge with most/all rooms. There’s a drinking fountain on site but the water is an unappetising yellow. Water is sold at a slight markup. 2-Do the Cruzeiro trail. It’s steep but short and finishes with an excellent view over the sanctuary. 3-Wolf watching: wolf down your own dinner then get outside and take the seat at the top of the steps. This should give you a chance to take some pictures of the wolf without other people in the background. It seems the wolf is quite likely to come when the food is first put out around 7:30pm. If you all get lucky and see the wolf nice and early, many tourists will go to bed and you can stay up and hope to see the wolf return when there are fewer people. I went back to the wolf area about 9:30pm and there were just 6 other people there. Unfortunately, 3 gents were standing at the top of the stairs having a loud conversation and blocking the wolf’s path. Another man was sat down coughing up a lung and periodically allowing loud bursts of noise to come from his phone. Rather than sit with buffoons, I decided to retire and come back after midnight, but I should’ve waited them out. Around 1am I was back out there alone and the guide came out and told me the wolf came back at 11:50pm, around half an hour after the chatty lads had gone to bed and the coughing man had died. I sat around until 1:30am but wasn’t lucky enough to get a private viewing. If I hadn’t had to drive the next day I might’ve sat up all night: it was a lovely temperature and no bother from insects. I’d consider 2 nights if I ever visited again. 4-If you can, visit on a weekday, when there will presumably be fewer tourists. I was there on a Wednesday and there were 30 of us, but I think the sanctuary has rooms for many more. Finally a tip for the sanctuary (I’m sure the staff will have read this far down): The guide needs to be out there with the tourists BEFORE the wolf comes! To say there were 30 of us, the behaviour wasn’t actually that bad, but still, tourists flouted the rules by standing at the top of the steps and talking too loud. When someone called out he could see the wolf, half the people started bouncing around, taking photos and talking in outdoor voices and scared the wolf off, while those following the basic rules (sit down and shut up) didn’t get to see a thing. Thankfully, the wolf came back when the guide came out with food, but if it hadn’t come back, someone would’ve got chinned. Probably the guy who let his phone alarm go off and sneezed wholesomely when the wolf was just plucking up the courage to climb the steps. Anyway, sanctuary folk, please, the guide needs to get out earlier and explain how to behave (even though written instructions are everywhere). It’s a brilliant place. So glad I got the chance to visit.

The reserve here is out of this world - extensive cerrado - trees and savannah, criss-crossed with rivers and waterfalls. Many short (up to about 6km) and longer trails with a guide. Incredible variety of landscapes, something different at every turn. All trails very well kept and signposted and easy to understand maps available. One of the most beautiful places I have ever visited. A must visit place.

The location itself is fabulous and really beautiful! The nature around the monastery is pristine and there are lots of birds and mammals. The monastery itself looks amazing. The rooms are a bit cold (it was winter when we visited), but it was comfortable. The thing we were surprised and really unhappy with was the plastic single-use by the hotel. Everything (!!!) is wrapped in plastic... The blankets are wrapped in plastic, the soap are small plastic bottles.. at the restaurant you have to take plastic gloves before going to the buffet, the cutlery is wrapped in plastic, coffee cups, desert cups, desert spoons etc are all wrapped in (single-use) plastic. One of the biggest problems in the world is pollution of nature by plastic, and especially in Brazil there isn't any good recycling system. We would expect a hotel who ask prices like this (about 100 USD$ a night) and who have a religious background to care more about the creation of the Lord. There are lots of good alternatives for all of these. Alcohol gel for the hands should be enough when going to the buffet, also when grabbing cutlery. Glass cups and normal spoons for coffee and desert... Soap dispensers in the shower etc. Really hope they change this, because the amount of waste that is created in this place was the worst we have seen in any hotel in Brazil after 2 months of travelling!

Beautiful place, not very comfortable, nice staff. If you plan to see the wolf (lobo guara), keep in mind it will NOT come while there are too many people around! They put out the food at 19:30, but because the people were talking loudly, it appeared only around 23h, and very briefly. If you come during the weekend, don't waste your time before everyone goes to bed. Rest and come around midnight, or wake up really early (5am) for a better chance to see it. Also don't be an idiot, don't use camera flash and make any noise whatsoever! It really is a magnificent animal and worth waiting for!

Amazing place in the middle of the nature! A little bit more expensive than a hostel but it's full board. The breakfast is the best I've ever taken in Brazil !!! Too bad that you need to contract a guide to access to the most interesting places. It's good to spend 2 nights. More if you can pay for a guide.

It is a beautiful and quiet place

Amazing view! Large parking. Good restaurant. Bring sun umbrella

Very beautiful place. Don't expect great food options.

I love this place😍, is better Wen is summer time❤️😎💒☀️☀️☀️.

Cool.

Paz interior, harmonia...

A lovely place. Swimming at the big waterfall was a lot of fun. Rocks we're a bit slippery but it was great on a warm day. Expensive but well maintained. That being said, we were told the price was because there was a lifeguard there to watch over us. We never saw him. I don't think there actually was one.

Great place to come to relax and have a day out with friends or family. The price is quite expensive R$30 each, so plan to spend the whole day. Bring your swimming gear as it's a good place to swim. Also bring a picnic but no BBQ's or alcohol.

This waterfall is on a private place, you must pay to enter. There are several waterfalls.in this parc but only Cahoera Grande is worth the view.

Nice enough, but R$50 per person! and you have to fill in a form and have your bags checked to go in, more security than at the airport! Just to go into the state park, which has bigger and better waterfalls, for FREE and not bother with this place and it's greedy owners. How can they charge R$50 when the Sanctuario do Caraça, which is thousands of times larger and far more beautiful charge only R$25! Daylight robbery. I see some people here saying that if there was no entrance fee and it was not public it would be a mess. Well go look in the State Park, it is free and well kept and the staff are very friendly and helpful, not like the grumpy trio when we arrived, who did not even say good morning!

Great place to relax. Theres no much pele during weekdays. Great. Worth every coin

Topppp

This entrance provides access to two main attractions, the Farofa waterfall and the Bandeirinhas canyon, a total of 29km of route - consider cycling, the trails do not offer secondary attractions and the sun is scorching. On the 2nd day we got lost (there is little signage) and were unable to see the Capão dos Palmitos waterfall, which they say is pleasant. I found the lagoons on the way to the Retiro entrance unattractive, in my opinion they are not worth the trip.

Natural reserve with a biome between desertic and forest. Beautiful waterfall. Be aware that the points of interests are several Km aparts and you might need more than one day to visit all. Be safe when going there by car, the roads are poor quality.

Very cool park with lots of recreative options! Mountain biking, mountain climbing, hiking, sightseeing, just to namea few. Well, I went there as a volunteer wildfire fighter, to help keep the views and trails, fauna and flora for people to see & consciously enjoy!

Very good! There you can track or bike with your friends, the tracking is not hard, so even children can go! The waterfalls are amazing!

It is a beautiful place where you can find peace. I recommend it.

It was a great place for hiking, biking and enjoying the waterfalls in the park.

Show

Who doesn’t want to visit Mr. Juquinha. It was a unexpected visit and I really enjoyed visiting this statue. There was no one at the entrance and we just pushed the gates aside and entered this place. It was like abandoned site. There was sufficient amount of fresh water flowing next to this statue. Thought the maintenance of this statue needs some progress. Hope the people who live in that property takes care of it. I could see that some parts of the statue was damaged /broken. Moreover; it’s a must visit place at Serra do cipó.

Fresh air o top of the Serra do Cipó, butiful view.

Outstanding view!

This waterfall is a gravity-defying spectacle. It's so tall, the water evaporates into a fine mist before it reaches the bottom, like a liquid ghost. The viewpoint, a leisurely 15-minute stroll, offers a truly breathtaking panorama. For the more adventurous, a 30-minute descent leads to refreshing swimming ponds, or a 3-4 hour hike will take you to the top. The hike itself is a decent workout, a 500-meter climb followed by a 300-meter descent, but nothing a moderately fit person can't handle. Just keep an eye out for the local creepy-crawlies. At the top, you'll find a series of inviting ponds perfect for a dip, cascading water flows for a natural massage, and deep pools for cliff jumping. If you're feeling particularly energetic, you can venture all the way to the edge, where the water begins its dramatic 250-meter plunge. The view from there is undeniably romantic, a vast expanse of rocky wilderness stretching into the horizon. Be prepared to hop across the river a few times to reach this hidden gem. Park rangers patrol the area, ensuring everyone's safety and enforcing the park's 5 PM closing time. They're also a reliable source of assistance if you happen to get lost or need help. The entrance fee is a mere 10 Brazilian reals, and seniors 60+ get in free. A word of caution: the top viewpoint is accessible by car from Tres Barras, but it requires a sturdy SUV or Jeep and involves a short but challenging 2 km drive across rocks and rivers. Not recommended for those with mobility issues.

A amazing waterfalls to visit for sure. Both top and bottom views are excellent. The view from top needs some walking inside the waterfalls and is worth the effort. We can sit next the waterfalls and see it’s magic. The bottom park gives the overall visualization of the waterfalls.

Surreal!

(Translated by Google) Tabuleiro Waterfall, where the Earth whispers grandeur and the water sings freedom Not every place makes you feel so small. Tabuleiro Waterfall does. There, in the heart of Conceição do Mato Dentro, the water plummets almost 300 meters as if the sky were crying with calm, strength, and faith. It's the largest in Minas Gerais, but its size is only a detail: what truly impresses is the silence it imposes on our hearts when we see it up close. The trail to the base is a moderate adventure, with rocks, roots, and shade. It takes about 3 km of steps and sighs—but once you get there, time slows down. The pool is clear, deep, and wild. The waterfall vibrates in the air like a constant thunderclap. And there you are, just another small being before the immensity. If you want a more relaxed breath, the viewpoint is also worth every second. In a 600-meter easy hike, the view will leave you speechless. Whether high or low, Tabuleiro touches the soul. (Original) Cachoeira do Tabuleiro onde a Terra sussurra grandeza e a água canta liberdade Nem todo lugar te faz sentir pequeno de um jeito tão bonito. A Cachoeira do Tabuleiro faz. Ali, no coração de Conceição do Mato Dentro, a água despenca de quase 300 metros como se o céu chorasse com calma, força e fé. É a maior de Minas, mas o tamanho é só detalhe: o que impressiona mesmo é o silêncio que ela impõe ao coração da gente quando a vemos de perto. A trilha até a base é uma aventura moderada, com pedras, raízes e sombra. Leva uns 3 km de passos e suspiros — mas, quando se chega, o tempo desacelera. O poço é claro, profundo e selvagem. A queda vibra no ar como um trovão constante. E você ali, só mais um ser pequeno diante da imensidão. Se quiser um respiro mais fácil, o mirante também vale cada segundo. Em 600 metros de caminhada leve, a vista já te deixa sem palavras. No alto ou na base, Tabuleiro toca a alma.

(Translated by Google) Simply stunning! A beautiful waterfall. When it's full, it's even more amazing. From the lookout, the view of the wall and the waterfall resembles the shape of a heart. The view from the top is also beautiful. It's worth every effort. (Original) Simplesmente deslumbrante! Linda cachoeira. Quando está cheia é ainda mais surpreendente. Do mirante a vista do paredão e da cachu lembra a forma de um coração. A vista da parte alta é linda também. Vale cada esforço.

This was a disaster. Literally after 7pm there is NO ice cream in ANY part of the mall, even at the little McDonald's Desserts stalls. Do not recommend if you are here for desserts, the other stores are pretty nice.

It is a nice place to eat if you’re on your way through BR 381. It has several options of food and other services. Sure, if you live in Ipatinga or nearby it is a place where you can find all services and leisure you need.

Nice place to eat and enjoy

Very bad shopping..all shops were closed..people here visit only for icecream 🍦 cinema 🎦 and supermarket

This third world small shopping center doesn't allow dogs. Very disappointed They erase my comments a few times. Thank you to the manager Lucas for their explanation about Not Dogs allow in their shopping.

GV Shopping is small when compared to shopping centres in São Paulo but it serves its purpose. The shops are modern and the ambience is quite pleasant. You won't find great variety but there's a chance they have everything you need.

Ibituruna is a beautiful mountain for outdoor sports. You can fly paragliding, do rock climbing, repealing, mountain bike, downhill, trekking. Usually I hike up, I starts at Trilhas Bar and I take about 2h up and 1h20 down. It is 6.6km of trail, not too difficult and I recommend you take with you at least 2L of water and snacks because there is no site to buy it, and maybe when you be at the summit the only bar/store is closed. There is a site called Pedra da Fofoca is a point for beautiful photos so worth stop there, and then stop at Pedra do Rei Leão. If you do not want hike down you can fly a tandem paragliding flight and land in front of the Trilhas Bar or at the downtown. They offer bus midday driving down (must to check availability).

This is my second time here. The views never disappoint. The first time, I went paragliding, which is still available for those who wish to experience a gentle flying experience.

Pico do Ibituruna offers incredible panoramic views of Governador Valadares and the surrounding landscape. The top is easily accessible by car, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the scenery. A must-visit for anyone in the area!

Nice view over the city of Governador Valadares. There's a bus that can get you over there.

Amazing view of the city ! Capital mundial of paraglided! Spiritual sanctuary! I enjoy about 6 hrs at the top of Mountain!

This is an excellent view point to visit and gives unprecedented views of the city and surrounding country side. The road leading up is very steep and rough, so be prepared. But I believe there is also a bus service too. There is a great opportunity to para glide from the summit, which provides some of the best paragliding experiences in the world.

Amazing place to practice free flight. Nature

Such a wonderful natural place of beauty! To get to the beaches/restaurants, you have to go up a little hill of sand (through an opening off the main street) and then decend down and walk a little towards the direction of the water. On your way to the beaches, you will see a plaque describing the history of the old "vilas of Itaunas" and this sandy desert place is magical to take photos in. There is a choice of a few different cabanas or restaurants to hang out it, the food/drinks will be pricier than usual since this place is an attraction but it's nice to have this change of scenery not far for Vitória city center, so you get the city vibe as well as the nature retreat.

There is a small village, where we can appreciate the nature, very good food, basically fish and appreciate it's quietude(during it's off season of course)

Awesome place to stay at. The nature over there provides a revigorating feeling on the visitor. I highly recomend the visitation of Dunas of Itaunas

Very beautiful place

An awesome and magic village. The sand dunes are the postcard and the forró music don't stop come and enjoy this place. Full nature, full peace and a lot of simpathy.

Beautiful place. Paradise. I know this place since my childhood. Lots of memories.

Rural and natural beach.

(Translated by Google) I discovered it walking along the seafront, leaving Costa Dourada, passing by Praia dos Lençóis, until Riacho Doce beach, beautiful, a refreshing swim in the river, but I was disappointed with the amount of rubbish on the river banks. (Original) Conheci caminhando beira mar, sai de Costa Dourada, passei pela Praia dos Lençóis, até a praia Riacho Doce, linda, um banho de rio revigorante, mas me decepcionei com a quantidade de lixo, nas margens do rio.

Great for taking children, a very peaceful place 😃 Videos of the city on my YouTube channel, search for Alessandra feroys (Original) Uma praia excelente linda e calma. Ótimo para levar crianças lugar bem tranquilo 😃vídeos da cidade no meu canal no YouTube pesquise lá Alessandra feroys

(Translated by Google) Very nice beach. Busier on weekends. During the week there are few street vendors and some shops are closed. (Original) Praia muito boa. Mais movimentada no fim de semana. Durante a semana tem poucos vendedores ambulantes e algumas lojas não abrem.

(Translated by Google) Long, spacious beach, depending on the day strong waves, it is not very busy the way I like it, very beautiful and clean, there is a part invaded by rich and clueless people with beachfront inns and houses making part of the beach "private" taking away this segregation factor it is a good place to relax and be at peace. (Original) Praia extensa, espaçosa, dependendo do dia ondas fortes, é pouco movimentada do jeito que eu gosto, muito bonita e limpa, tem uma parte invadida por pessoas ricas e sem noção com pousadas beira mar e casas tornando um parte da praia "particular" tirando esse fator segregativo é um bom lugar pra relaxar e ficar tranquilo.

(Translated by Google) Wonderful beach. Strong waves, open sea. In the afternoon the tide rises a lot and the strip of sand disappears. Very beautiful place. Worth visiting. (Original) Praia maravilhosa. Ondas fortes, mar aberto. A tarde a maré sobe muito e a faixa de areia desaparece. Lugar muito bonito. Vale a pena conhecer.

(Translated by Google) Good beach in the morning, in the afternoon it gets busy and at high tide. (Original) Praia boa pela manhã, a tarde fica agitada e maré alta.

Great opportunity to be very close toBooby chicks! Snorkeling with many fish and turtles on a small but healthy reef.

One of the best places for scuba diving in Brazil, if not the best. Live aboard vessels recommended .

Beautiful place for diving!!!

(Translated by Google) Fantastic place! A place of vibrant nature. It is a biological treasure of Brazil of utmost importance, preserved since the time of imperial Brazil. A place of rich marine fauna and flora. It is located some distance from the continental coast of Caravelas- Bahia. A wonderful and welcoming city. From there, book a package (I recommend Escama Turismo) preferably for 2 or more days. Sensational. Translucent waters are a region rich in history, biology and adventure. Dive in and go. Long live the Brazilian people, long live Bahia and long live Brazil 🇧🇷 (Original) Local Fantástico! Local de natureza pulsante. É um tesouro biológico do Brasil de suma importância guardado desde a época do Brasil imperial. Local de rica fauna e flora marinha. Fica a uma certa distância da costa continental de Caravelas- Bahia. Município maravilhoso e acolhedor. De lá pegue algum pacote(recomendo a Escama Turismo) de preferência 2 ou mais diárias. Sensacional. Águas translúcidas é uma região rica em história, biologias e aventura. Mergulhe e vá. Viva o povo brasileiro,viva a Bahia e viva o Brasil 🇧🇷

(Translated by Google) Beautiful❤️Wonderful😍 But we couldn't disembark because the tide wasn't right. I really wanted to step on the island too. We were in the water and on the boat for 2:30. 4 hours to get there and another 4 hours to get back. Full day 😁 My suggestion is not to buy this tour together with the accommodation. Leave it to settle there. The price is on average 320.00 with breakfast, lunch and snack. But the weather is very important for this adventure. Visitors are only allowed to disembark on Siriba Island. I only stayed for the photo very far from the island 🌴 😖😎😫. Wonderful diving! But for those who want to see whales 🐋 check the calendar👍🏽. It's not all year round. (Original) Lindo❤️Maravilhoso😍 Mas não conseguimos desembarque pq a maré não estava legal. Queria muito pisar na ilha Tbm. Ficamos na água e no barco por 2:30. 4h para chegar é mais 4h para voltar. Dia inteiro 😁Minha sugestão é não comprar esse passeio junto com a hospedagem. Deixa para acertar por lá. Valor custa em média 320,00 com café da manhã, almoço e lanche. Mas o clima é muito importante para essa aventura. Desembarque de visitantes é permitido somente na ilha da Siriba. Fiquei só na fotografia bem Longe da Ilha 🌴 😖😎😫.Mergulho maravilhoso! Mas para quem quer ver baleias 🐋 se ligue no calendario👍🏽. Não é o ano todo.

(Translated by Google) No words can begin to describe the indescribable beauty of Abrolhos! Along with Fernando de Noronha, it boasts one of the greatest diversities of marine species in the South Atlantic, with a wealth of colors that impresses even those accustomed to diving in places of exceptional beauty! We suggest that those who venture to explore the archipelago reserve the money and time to spend at least two days on any vessel accredited by the Navy and authorized to dock in the park region. One of the best experiences of my life, after visiting several countries and places of rare beauty! (Original) Não há explicações com palavras que possam arranhar a beleza indescritível de Abrolhos! Juntamente com Fernando de Noronha, reúne uma das maiores diversidades de espécies marinhas do Atlântico Sul, com uma riqueza de cores que impressiona até mesmo aqueles que estão acostumados a mergulhar em lugares de beleza elevada! Sugere-se, para aqueles que se aventurarem em conhecer o arquipélago, reservem dinheiro e tempo para ficarem embarcados pelo menos por dois dias em qualquer embarcação credenciada pela Marinha e autorizada a atracar na região do Parque. Uma das melhores experiências da minha vida, após conhecer diversos países e locais de rara beleza!

(Translated by Google) Beautiful beach. The town's main attraction is the inns and beachfront restaurants. There is a small square that opens at night with several stalls and a restaurant for snacks. Excellent beach for children, the elderly and those who don't like waves. There are SUP and kayak rentals. There is a fishing village nearby. The stalls are more expensive than the others in Prado. I recommend Binotto's, where the food is very good. I left Prado about 35 km away, which was a little rainy, and took 1 hour and 30 minutes. The road was made of sand due to the rain, and it was a bit tense because it was very muddy and full of potholes. If it rains, think twice about going. It passes by several beaches. There are some beautiful cliffs to take pictures of, including Praia da Amendoeira, which is fantastic. It is worth the stop. (Original) Praia linda. O forte da cidade são pousadas e restaurante beira mar. Tem uma pracinha que abre a noite com diversas barracas e restaurante para lanche Praia Excelente para crianças, idosos e quem não gosta de ondas. Tem aluguel de Sup, e caiaque. Tem Vila de pescador perto. Barracas são mais caras que as demais de Prado. Recomendo a do Binotto , onde a comida é muito boa. Saí de Prado em torno de 35 km, que estava um pouco chovendo, deu 01hora e 30 minutos. Estrada de chão de areia devido a chuva, foi um pouco tenso pois muita lama e bem esburacada. Em caso de chuva , pense bem em ir. Ela passa praticamente em várias praias. Tem algumas falésias lindas pra tirar fotos, inclusive a praia da amendoeira é fantástica. Vale a pena a parada.

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately, the haphazard occupation of the riverbanks that run through the village has brought a lot of sewage, noticeable in the 'smell' emanating from them. But it's a beautiful beach. (Original) Infelizmente a ocupação desordenada das margens dos rios que cortam a vila trouxe muito esgoto, perceptível com o 'cheiro' que exala destes. Mas uma belíssima praia.

(Translated by Google) Very quiet beach, with clearer waters than in Prado. Access by road is not good, so people with low-lying cars will have a hard time. However, if you are in a good mood and not in a hurry, it is an excellent place to visit. (Original) Praia muito tranquila, águas mais claras do que em Prado. O acesso por estrada não é bom, quem tem carro baixo sofre. Porém se estiver animado e sem pressa é um excelente local para se conhecer.

(Translated by Google) The beaches that are further away are the best: Barra do Cahy, Moreira and Imbassuaba!!! (Original) As praias que ficam distantes são as melhores: Barra do Cahy, Moreira e Imbassuaba!!!

(Translated by Google) One of the most beautiful beaches in the region. It has a historical character, as it was the first beach in Brazil. The bars along the shore are all excellent. I went to Restaurante da Glória. I found the prices to be more expensive, but that's understandable, as it's quite isolated. Don't forget to go kayaking in the mangroves, where the water is very warm and dark. To get there from Corumbau, you need to take a boat (R$20 per person) if the tide is high. There is parking. (Original) Uma das praias mais bonitas da região. Tem caráter histórico por ser a Primeira praia do Brasil. Os bares da orla são excelentes, todos. Fui ao Restaurante da Glória. Achei os preços mais caros, mas é compreensível por ser bem isolado. Não deixe de passear de caiaque no mangue, água muito quente e bem escura. Para chegar por Corumbau é necessário atravessar de barco (R$20 por pessoa) se a maré estiver cheia. Tem estacionamento.

(Translated by Google) WONDERFUL place, the hardships of the road are worth it haha. Clean, quiet beach, great for going with kids. Wonderful food and I even found the prices affordable, considering how difficult it is to get there. It's totally worth it... Cumuru definitely won my heart and Barra do Cahy, one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever seen, I'd even go as far as to say the most beautiful 😍 (Original) Lugar MARAVILHOSO, os perrengues da estrada valem a pena haha. Praia limpa, tranquila, ótima pra ir com criança. Comida maravilhosa e os valores até achei acessíveis, tendo em vista a dificuldade que é pra chegar ao local. Vale super a pena… com certeza cumuru ganhou meu coração e barra do cahy, uma das praias mais lindas que já vi, até arrisco a dizer a mais linda 😍

(Translated by Google) I'm in love with Barra do Cahy. For those who want to relax by the river, it's perfect, and for those who like to sit in kiosks, the two on the beach are delightful. Don't go to Corumbau or Cumuruxatiba without visiting it. (Original) Eu sou apaixonada pela Barra do Cahy. Pra quem quer ficar sossegado no rio é perfeito e pra quem gosta de ficar em quiosque os dois que tem na praia são deliciosos. Não pra ir em Corumbau ou Cumuruxatiba sem vir conhecer.

(Translated by Google) We stayed at Glória's restaurant, which offered us more attractive prices. The food was delicious and served three people very well. (Original) Ficamos no restaurante da Glória, que nos ofereceu preços mais atrativos. A comida é muito saborosa e serve muito bem 3 pessoas.

(Translated by Google) Best beach in the area!! If you can stay closer, you won't regret it. Impeccable facilities! Being further from the center, it's very quiet and empty. It's paradise! Saltwater and freshwater. BEST BEACH I'VE EVER BEEN TO. We stayed at the Manzuko restaurant. We received excellent service. The food is sooo good. We went there three days in a row and already felt right at home, lol. (Original) Melhor praia da região!! Se puder se hospedar mais perto, não irá se arrepender. Estrutura impecável! Por ficar mais longe do centro, é bem tranquila e vazia. É o próprio paraíso! Água salgada e doce. MELHOR PRAIA QUE JÁ FUI NA VIDA. Ficamos no restaurante Manzuko. Fomos super bem atendidos. A comida é muuuito boa. Fomos 3 dias seguidos para lá e já nos sentimos em casa kkk.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful beach! With restaurant facilities, chairs, and restrooms! Wonderful place! (Original) Praia linda! Com estrutura de restaurante, cadeiras e banheiro! Lugar maravilhoso!

(Translated by Google) Beautiful beach with well-preserved infrastructure. Great restaurants. (Original) Linda praia com estrutura preservada. Ótimos restaurantes.
