A great place to feel closer to Mother Nature. The paths surrounded by tall trees, the mineral water fountains built with an old classic look, the sound of birds, the wind in the trees, and many, many cicadas. I'm born in Caxambu, and live here for almost all my life, and the Water park is like a sanctuary for me, where I feel safe and sound. Last week was my first time swimming in the pool and it couldn't be more fun and pleasing! There's so many good things I could talk about the Park, but just being in a place like this is an experience I can not find words to describe. You'll must feel it yourself.
This really is an amazing place to visit. I really liked the different water points/fountains that all had an unique flavour and most of them taste good. The buildings of the water fountains are well maintained and in general are beautiful. The park also is nice to walk through and is easy to take children or babies to the park. There are many nice places to sit. Also the prize is good. There is also a swimming pool and a place to take baths. Downside is that parking is difficult close to the park. Overall, this is the best water park that we went to.
Nice and old park,needs a lot of maintenance. The water wells are nice and some of them are very well tasting,there is also a nice swimming pool.
Lovely park well taken care of. Great place to spend an afternoon strolling through the grounds visiting the many beautiful natural spring water stations.
It’s a nice place to take a walk and try all the different natural waters.
This place is magical. The water fountains do have curative properties. I had heart burn for months and 2 days of drinking the water stopped it
It's majestic, but everything seems to be a bit abandoned. It's a shame really. This park has so much potential to attract tourists.

(Translated by Google) I was unable to visit the church inside, but in my opinion it is worth a visit. I went up the stairs where you can already have a beautiful view of Caxambu. (Original) Não consegui visitar a igreja por dentro, mas em minha opinião vale a visita. Fui pela escadaria onde já é possível ter uma bonita vista de Caxambu.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful church, but it is hardly ever open. (Original) Igreja bonita, mas quase não fica aberta.
(Translated by Google) The church was inaugurated in 1897, in a neo-Gothic style. Light plays an important role in its interior, diffused through its stained-glass windows, creating an aura of mysticism. Its construction was due to a promise made by Princess Isabel in gratitude for a cure she received. This saint was her devotion. It's a shame it's not open on Sundays. (Original) Igreja inaugurada em 1897, com estilo neogótico. A luz tem papel importante em seu interior, difundida através de seus vitrais numa aura de misticismo. Sua construção se deu por conta de uma promessa feita pela Princesa Isabel, por gratidão a uma cura alcançada. Está Santa era de sua devoção. Pena que não abre aos domingos.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful. What a shame it was closed when I visited. (Original) Linda. Que pena que estava fechada, quando fui visitar
(Translated by Google) To avoid climbing a huge staircase, choose to drive around Praça 16 de Setembro. When we arrived at the location, we couldn't go in because the church was closed. But it's still worth visiting and enjoying the view of part of the center of Caxambu. (Original) Para evitar subir uma escadaria enorme, faça a opção de contornar de carro pela Praça 16 de Setembro. Ao chegar no local, não pudemos entrar porque a igreja estava fechada. Mas, mesmo assim, vale a pena conhecer e aproveitar a vista de parte do Centro de Caxambu.
(Translated by Google) I went through the back, very calmly. It is next to the city hospital, I had no idea that there were these stairs there. According to legend, the number of steps is the number of days it took for Princess Isabel to be cured of anemia with the water from the park, which is why she managed to get pregnant and then gifted the city with this miracle by donating the construction of this church, which unfortunately was closed. (Original) Fui pelos fundos, bem tranquilamente. Fica ao lado do Hospital da cidade, mal sabia que tinha essa escadaria aí. A quantidade de degraus reza a lenda, são os números de dias necessarios para que princesa Isabel fosse curada da anemia com a água do parque, motivo pela qual ela conseguiu engravidar e então presenteou a cidade por esse milagre com a doação da construção desta Igreja que infelizmente estava fechada.
(Translated by Google) "Visiting hours: Monday to Sunday, ring the doorbell at the house next door." This is to make the tourist wait like a fool, because no one answers 😀 Wednesday, 4 pm. (Original) "Horário de visitação: segunda a domingo, tocar a campainha na casa ao lado". É pra deixar o turista esperando igual trouxa, pq ninguém atende 😀 Quarta-feira, 16h.

Great park. The waters here are curative. Each fountain is good for different things
Beautiful waterpoint with good water!
(Translated by Google) This place is incredible, the carbonated water is the tastiest in the park, I even brought it home. You can take up to 10 liters (for each visitor) (Original) Incrível este lugar, água gaseificada e achei a mais saborosa do parque, trouxe até pra casa. Vc pode levar até 10 litros (p cada visitante)
(Translated by Google) I loved the Caxambu Water Park. I took an aromatic bath in the spa and it was a wonderful experience. I recommend it. (Original) Amei o parque das Águas de Caxambu. Tomei banho aromático no balneário e foi uma experiência maravilhosa. Recomendo.
(Translated by Google) Wonderful, natural waters. I loved exploring them! (Original) Águas maravilhosas e naturais. Adorei conhecer!
(Translated by Google) We loved the park, the fountains are each more beautiful but need some good restoration, but Dom Pedro is perfect!! (Original) Adoramos o parque, as fontes cada uma mais bonita mas falta uma boa restauraçao, mas a Dom Pedro é perfeita!!
(Translated by Google) The fountain is beautiful, very good water! (Original) A fonte é linda, água muito boa!
(Translated by Google) Very well preserved!!! Natural carbonated mineral water, great for your health!!! (Original) Muito bem conservada!!!Agua mineral gaseificada natural ótima pra saúde!!!

(Translated by Google) Entry is free, excellent service in which it was mentioned that the exhibition pieces were returned to their respective owners due to a change of owner but will soon return to the exhibition. (Original) A entrada é gratuita, atendimento excelente na qual foi mencionado que as peças de exposição foram devolvidos para os respectivos donos em virtude de troca de responsável mas em breve retornarão para a exposição.
(Translated by Google) The place itself is nice. The employee who was there explained the exhibition to me and was very attentive. But the content was not interesting or had any historical meaning or connection to Caxambu and that disappointed me. (Original) O local em si é legal. O funcionário que havia lá me explicou sobre a exposição, foi bem atencioso. Mas o conteúdo mão era interessante ou possuía qualquer sentido histórico ou ligação com Caxambu e isso me decepcionou.
(Translated by Google) Free entry, well maintained, very friendly staff. Interesting building. It is a large house on top of a stone base, where the city's water tank (cisterns) used to be. Inside the house was the machinery that was removed and made way for the museum. It was never a residential building. Currently, it houses traveling exhibitions, but does not have a permanent collection. (Original) Entrada gratuita, bem cuidado, funcionário muito simpático. Construção interessante. É um casarão em cima de uma base de pedra, onde ficava a caixa d'água (cisternas) da cidade. Dentro do casarão ficava o maquinário que foi retirado e deu lugar ao museu. Nunca foi residencial. Atualmente, abriga exposições itinerantes, não tem acervo permanente
(Translated by Google) Small museum but we are very well attended, very organized and free, it is worth visiting! (Original) Museu pequeno porém a gente é muito bem atendido, muito organizado e gratuito, vale a pena conhecer!
(Translated by Google) A museum with such great potential was closed for infrastructure works and with no plans to reopen for visitors. (Original) Um museu com grande potencial desses, estava fechado para obras de infraestrutura e sem previsão de retorno para visitação
(Translated by Google) Simple and wonderful! There was a gentleman there who explained the history of the city to us, it was incredible! (Original) Simples e maravilhoso! Havia um senhor lá que explicou a história da cidade pra nós, foi incrível!
(Translated by Google) Closed. On Google it appears as open (Original) Fechado. No Google aparece como aberto
(Translated by Google) Very good. It's well preserved! (Original) Muito bom. Está bem conservado!
