We went to  the historical cities in Minas Gerais. The first city we visited was Ouro preto that is known for its colonial architecture.

The second place was Mariana, in the XVII century  it was the first village, town and capital of state of  Minas Gerais, because it was one of the largest producers of gold.

Tiradentes was one of the cities that produced more gold in Brazil, because of that the village has developed becoming a city.

Congonhas  has the most famous sculptures of  the artist  :Alejadinho.

            All the cities we have visited are in the interior of Brazil, and are  two hours from Belo Horizonte the  capital of Minas Gerais.
