Activity description

Tiradentes, a charming town in Minas Gerais located 203 km from Belo Horizonte. Situated at the foot of the Serra São José mountain range, the municipality boasts a wealth of tourist, recreational, and cultural attractions that would make any other place envious.

Hundreds of kilograms of gold were extracted from these lands, and in the early years of the settlement, the original chapel was replaced by a magnificent temple, the Matriz de Santo Antônio, a carefully preserved heritage site along with the historical center. These characteristics give it a bucolic and romantic aspect, attracting many couples and families to the place.

What to visit in Tiradentes: City center (Largo das Forras), Rua Direita, fountain, Basilica Church of Santo Antonio, Padre Toledo Museum, and the Old Jail. Observation of the city's architecture and history.

The neighboring town of São João del Rei, better known as the city where the bells speak, is marked by its Baroque architecture, reminiscent of the colonial style from the gold mining era in the state.

Places visited in São João del Rei: Historic Center, Solar dos Neves, Church of São Francisco de Assis, where there is a garden with imperial palm trees at the entrance, Church of Nossa Senhora do Carmo and Church of Nossa Senhora do Rosário, among others.
