Minas Gerais, Brazil

4.5 (0)

Overview

Town and municipality in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. It lies in southeastern Brazil, most comfortable in the dry winter months from June to August.

Why visit: Ouro Preto, Paraty and Olinda — gold-rush and colonial towns of baroque churches and painted houses, several UNESCO-listed.

Things to do

›Walk the cobbled centre in the early morning before the heat
›Go inside the churches — the gold-leaf baroque interiors are the point
›Stay a night; the day-trip crowds leave by evening
›Wear shoes with grip, as the cobbles are steep and polished
