Welcome to Belo Horizonte

At first in the blog, we'd like you to see our city. It's not as known as Paris, Londres or Ontario, but for us it's the most wonderful city.
It's a long way to arrive here (I hope you have slept well), but there are many things you should see. Minas Gerais is about 3000 feet over the sea level. Many roads like BR-040 lead to the town. Be warned, it's very big, you might get lost there if you don't have a guide or map. Here is a map from the town.
There are many interesting things in Belo Horizonte, that makes the city a good place for you to travel in the holiday and vacations.
Personally, I think if you want to know the whole city you're going to take an eternity. The best places to visit are Pampulha, Praça do Papa and Mineirao. This photo shows Praça da Liberdade, a well-known place in BH, near Palácio das Artes. I hope you like it.

If you are looking for a place to stay, you should visit Hotel Mercury. Trust me, it's the best hotel you can find here.


If you are looking for a place where you can eat, I suggest you Macau. Fish and rice here are the best food you can find (that's a little odd, because we have no sea in BH). Every shopping here has a good restaurant.
Now if you want to go shopping, you went to the right place! The best shoppings here are BH, Diamond, Patio Savassi and Woods. When you feel like buying food, the best place you can go is Carrefour. Electrodomestics are on sale at Casas Bahia and Ricardo Eletro shops.

The language here is Portuguese. It may look hard to learn, it might even take years, but you can always find a Portuguese teacher or a dictionary. The best dictionaries are Oxford, Collins and Michaelis, but the best overall is Longman.

I hope you have a nice trip!
