(Translated by Google) Built in 1778, the Chafariz de Cauda da Boa Morte was built to share the city's water supply with the already existing Chafariz da Carioca. The term "Chafariz de Cauda" is used because the aqueduct that supplies it resembles a huge tail at the back. "Boa Morte" refers to the chapel of the same name, belonging to the Confraria dos Homens Pretos (Black Men's Brotherhood), located on a plot of land immediately behind the fountain. Built in stone masonry with soapstone details, the fountain has, in its central body, the spouts that provided water to the population, as well as two tanks for animals, on the outside. It is worth visiting. It is a historical site in the state of Goiás. (Original) Construído em 1778, o Chafariz de Cauda da Boa Morte foi construído com a finalidade de dividir o abastecimento de água da cidade com o já existente Chafariz da Carioca. O termo "Chafariz de Cauda" é usado em virtude do aqueduto que o abastece se assemelhar a uma enorme cauda, em sua parte posterior. Já "Boa Morte" se refere à Capela de mesmo nome, pertencente à Confraria dos Homens Pretos, situada em um terreno imediatamente atrás do local onde está implantado o Chafariz. Construído em alvenaria de pedra, com detalhes em pedra-sabão, o chafariz possui, em seu corpo central, as bicas que forneciam água à população além de dois tanques destinados aos animais, na parte externa. Vale a pena visitar. Ponto histórico do Estado de Goiás.
(Translated by Google) Simple and modest hotel, but comfortable and clean, with large rooms, compared to more modern hotels. The daily rate is very affordable. The breakfast leaves something to be desired and needs improvement. (Original) Hotel simples e modesto, mas confortável e limpo, co quartos grandes, se comparado com os hotéis mais modernos. O preço da diária é bem acessível. O café da manhã deixa a desejar e precisa melhorar.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful building with good preservation, located in a very historic and bucolic square. (Original) Bela construção com boa preservação, situado em praça muito histórica e bucólica.

(Translated by Google) I was mistreated at a bar across from the Shafariz. Misogyny, the waiter out of control. The owner gossiping with the employee. Both were unprepared. Terrible place. (Original) Fui destratada num bar de frente ao shafariz. Misoginia, o garçom descontrolado. Dono com fofoca com o funcionário. Ambos despreparados. Péssimo lugar
