Tips by GUSTAVO VIVACQUA

1.This is the city of the singers. The program is to hear some old Brazilian music at night. It is different and very good.


2.The city is frequented by musicians of the old guard, Brazilian popular music... and some very old ones.


3.The main program is to go for Crossbar to wait the singers to leave at 23:00 in Saturday. A crowd follows the singerss that  give a complete turn in the city.


4.If you like OVNIS, go the Serra da Beleza. Some appear for there once in a while.
 

5.If you have time go to Santa Rita of Jacutinga that has some good waterfalls.
