About Belo Horizonte
Belo Horizonte, capital of Minas Gerais, is a planned city of modernist architecture, mountain views and a famous café and bar culture.
Belo Horizonte was laid out on a grid with diagonal avenues in the 1890s as the new capital of Minas Gerais, and it is now one of Brazil's largest cities. The Serra do Curral ridge forms its backdrop. Praça da Liberdade, a formal square planted with palms, is ringed by museums and cultural centres housed in former government buildings.
