- Day tour in Congonhas
Let's get to know Congonhas, which is located 70 km from Belo Horizonte, in the Alto Paraopeba region. Congonhas receives tourists from various parts of Brazil and the world to enjoy the great work of the baroque artist Antônio Francisco Lisboa, better known as Aleijadinho. At the Bom Jesus de Matozinhos Sanctuary, master Aleijadinho carved the famous life-size images of twelve prophets in soapstone.
Another attraction of Congonhas are the six chapels that make up Jardim dos Passos in front of the Basilica, representing the Via Sacra with beautiful cedar images also made by Aleijadinho. For all its richness and grandeur, this complex was listed by UNESCO as a Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
