Pico da Ibituruna, a popular tourist destination in Governador Valadares, offers breathtaking views that never fail to impress.

The scenery from the top of the mountain provides a stunning panorama of the city. Despite some minor drawbacks such as challenging access roads and limited shaded areas, hiking up Pico da Ibituruna proves to be a rewarding and memorable experience.

This is an excellent view point to visit and gives unprecedented views of the city and surrounding country side. The road leading up is very steep and rough, so be prepared. But I believe there is also a bus service too.
There is a great opportunity to para glide from the summit, which provides some of the best paragliding experiences in the world.

(Translated by Google) After 40 years without visiting the city of Viçosa, I went to the graduation of my youngest daughter, who stayed at the University for 6 and a half years, due to the pandemic. I looked for a Church closer to where I was staying and went there to thank God for allowing me to graduate the last of my 3 children without much difficulty and to take the opportunity to ask Saint Rita of Cássia to intercede for a job for my daughter and the eldest son who are unemployed.
Here in my city, I had a neighbor who was very devoted to Santa Rita and died of cancer, but his devotion to this wonderful Saint meant that during the period of his illness, he kept a lot of hope in his family. When I entered the sanctuary I didn't know which Saint it belonged to, but when I saw the image I immediately remembered my devout neighbor and then I prayed a rosary for his intention and for my family, asking for protection and giving thanks for life. I was amazed by the beauty of the sanctuary, but I couldn't stay long, due to the time of the event and because there was a business, I would have to return quickly.
I intend to return to this sanctuary together with my children, soon, I hope, to thank you for the job
from them. SANTA RITA de CÁSSIA, pray to GOD for us 🙏🙏🙏
(Original)
Depois de 40 anos sem visitar a cidade de Viçosa, fui à formatura da minha filha caçula, que ficou na Universidade por 6 anos e meio, devido a pandemia. Procurei uma Igreja mais próxima de onde estava hospedado e fui lá agradecer à Deus por ter me permitido formar a ultima dos meus 3 filhos sem muita dificuldade e aproveitar a oportunidade para pedir que Santa Rita de Cássia interceda por um emprego para a minha filha e o filho mais velho que estão desempregados.
Aqui na minha cidade tinha um vizinho que era muito devoto de Santa Rita e morreu de câncer, mas a sua devoção a esta maravilhosa Santa, fez com que no período de sua doença, conservasse na família muita esperança. Quando entrei no santuário eu não sabia a que Santo pertencia, porém ao ver a imagem lembrei logo do meu vizinho devoto e aí rezei um terço por sua intenção e para minha família pedindo proteção e agradecendo pela vida. Fiquei maravilhado com a beleza do santuário, porém não pude ficar muito, devido o horário do evento e por ter um comércio teria que voltar rapidamente.
Pretendo voltar a este santuário juntamente com meus filhos, em breve, espero, para agradecer pelo emprego
deles. SANTA RITA de CÁSSIA, rogai a DEUS por nós 🙏🙏🙏

Saves lives and a good structure to welcome visitors. Entrance is paid. The price is 15.00 per person. Children up to 10 years old free. One suggestion is to cover entry per group. The kitchen is very good. The fish garjao surprised us. The dishes have attractive prices. The negative fact is that only appetizers are being served. So reducing the intake will certainly increase the output of these wonderful snacks. After all, swimming whets your appetite.👏👏👏👏

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place, very relaxing sound of the river, beautiful view, the private beach with access through the cafeteria is also pleasant, having breakfast there while enjoying the river is very pleasant, pleasant staff, comfortable suite but... the ceiling and the chandelier The room I stayed in (suite no. 4) was dirty, with cobwebs and insect nests, like those earthen tunnels. There was a lot inside the lamp. I also don't think it's a suitable place for children because of the cliff behind the rooms, separated only by two chains... Another fact that bothered us a lot was that we were charged for check-out when we arrived at the inn, right after They showed us the accommodations and the cafeteria, we were informed that we had to make payment...

Dentro da luminária tinha muito. Também não acho que seja um lugar adequado para crianças por causa da ribanceira atrás dos quartos, separadas apenas por duas correntes...

The Jardim do Nego in Campo do Coelho, Nova Friburgo, is a unique attraction known for its colossal clay sculptures adorned with moss. The garden, crafted by artist Geraldo Simplicio (aka Nego), showcases his 30-year hermitage in the area. Inspired by the natural landscape, Nego utilizes moss to create an otherworldly yet grounded ambiance for each sculpture.
Beautiful and very interesting , hard work of my friend NEGO , and his meditation process for life .

Gigantic clay sculptures covered in moss make Jardim do Nêgo in Campo do Coelho, a district of Nova Friburgo, a special place to visit. The unusual garden was created by artist Geraldo Simplício—a.k.a “Nêgo”—who lived as a hermit in the place for over 30 years.
Nêgo uses the landscape’s natural formations as the inspiration and foundation for his work. He covers the clay with moss, giving each sculpture an otherworldy yet earthy vibe.
The garden is a small, peaceful spot packed with larger-than-life works of art. There are currently 17 sculptures scattered throughout the place. Nêgo himself is typically present to greet visitors and chat about his work.

The Feirarte Teresópolis handicraft fair is a great place to shopping for clothes, jewellery, art and other items made by hand. There are over 600 stalls selling everything from furniture to food, making it an excellent destination for visitors to Rio de Janeiro.
Beautiful city to visit. Extremely clean and pleasent people. The market on sunday is an excellent place to visit. Lots of eating options. Strongly recommend this city to visit if you are in Rio de Janeiro.

Serra dos Órgãos National Park is a vast nature reserve located about 6km south of Teresopolis, Brazil. The park offers an extensive network of hiking routes, breathtaking mountain scenery, numerous waterfalls and natural swimming pools. It is also home to over 400 bird species, making it a paradise for birdwatchers. The park's lower section provides visitors with tamer walking trails, tended lawns and gardens perfect for picnics.
One of the most amazing National Parks in Brazil. Petrópolis - Teresópolis trail is a must. Among other attractions are "Dedo de Deus", waterfalls and breathtaking viewpoints.

Gabriel Garcia — Google review
I hiked from Petropolis to Teresopolis and it was one of the most technically difficult hikes I've done. There is this one part called the "little horse" where the only way to continue is to take your backpack off, grab the rock, swing your leg over the rock, and use your momentum to hoist your body on and over this large rock. Did I mention that this all takes place on cliff where if you fall you die? Yep!
It was worth it and so incredibly beautiful but the trail is no joke! Doable if you do it in 2-3 days (carrying your camping gear) but a lot of altitude! I have hiked 36km/day in the snow, and found this hike to be a challenge physically and mentally.

Cathedral in Petropolis. After their exile to and death in Europe, the remains of the last Brazilian emperor Pedro II and his wife were laid to rest here in marble tombs. His surviving daughter and her French husband are also entombed here. Of interest to those interested in 19th century imperial history of Brazil.

Housed in the grand palace built in 1845 by Brazil's first emperor, the Imperial Museum offers a comprehensive documentation of Brazil's rich history. Located in Petropolis, a city renowned for its remarkable architectural ensemble including landmarks like Palacio Quitandinha and Academia Petropolitana de Letras, the museum stands as the centerpiece of this historic district. It showcases exhibits that delve into Brazil's imperial past, showcasing artifacts and narratives that shed light on significant events and personalities.
Very enjoyable small museum of Brazilian history in what was the summer palace for the Emperor. Includes the imperial crown, bedrooms, and some nice paintings of old Rio. Good value at R$10.

Museum in Petropolis built during the reign of the last Brazilian emperor Pedro II. Fascinating insight to the imperial family of Brazil, lots of paintings of the emperor, empress and their two daughters. Anyone interested in the 19th century history of Brazil should find this enjoyable. It is worth doing some research on Internet beforehand. My doing so made it more interesting for me. It is not possible to take photos inside. Part of a day trip to Petroplois from Rio de Janiero.

Some great history! No photography is allowed inside, you have to ware slip on shoes over your shoes to walk inside. It’s a smaller museum and doesn’t take much time to see everything. Towards the end there’s a small gift shop with reasonably prices things to buy( Jewlery, souvenirs and such)
Theres bag checks where you buy tickets because there’s no bags allowed inside.

Hello sudits,This is our emperors museum.It used to host and cool our Brazillian nobility long time ago.Summer down there in RIO,Brazil is extremely hot with it´s beaches.So,the emperor decided to build this castle for them to shelter while summer very high on the hills,with freezing temperature in the winter and only one hour driving from Rio,their oficial residences and palaces.
The whole Petrópolis town developed by their residences and castle.Was built sanctuaries,and many more castles and architectures for the other members of the emperors family.
It worths your visit,we normally visited there at weekends,always having lots of fun with the requirements and free time of our emperor back them like libraries,european architecture,many castles for his family and made Brazillian economy run from there,at his summer coolness and rest.
Today,Petrópolis is a touristic town,all run by this sector of our economy.It´s obeyed for the kids and schools visiting and knowing our past and history.All in Petrópolis have this mood of tourism and visiting.There are many enterprises and economies but somehow they are part of visits and guides and all at beer factories,clothes tradition and even the farms are second place for our emperors palace and city built for his cool summers here at the tropics.
The principal attractions are for sure the huge nobility that owned this country centuries ago,their huge castles,diamond crowns and all the nobility and most cultured workers following the emperor at his summer and coolness.
Quitandinha is one example of respect and necessaire our emperors culture and economy.Is a huge hotel,just like a castle,but built much later following his patterns and today hosting a museum just by the city entrance and showing much different the Rio with this huge construction never seen from many visitors.
I think one week is enough for you to know all,see the many hotels built for this ancient history and be in the past with queens,kings,princes and all the royal family at that epoque.
Good visit!

Pousada Crystal Palace, a charming bed and breakfast, is situated in a Portuguese Colonial-style residence. It offers understated accommodations with a warm dining area, a garden, and a front veranda. Originally established in 1884 at the behest of the Count d'Eu and Princess Isabelle, this exquisite greenhouse was designed to showcase local flora, fauna, and avian species.
The place was cool, the staff were all very nice and it was a safe place to stay. The breakfast every morning was super delicious and had just about everything you can get for a breakfast. Would definitely return.

The location or perfect for those who want to stay at walking distance from the sightseeing places of Petrópolis. The closest place is Crystal Palace, less than a minute walking. Or you can walk about 7 minutes to the Imperial Museum. The continental breakfast is simple but have everything you may need for a morning of walking. The rooms are simple but cozy. If you're traveling in the summer I would recommend one with AC. The restroom has a nice and strong shower. Nood to relax.

(Translated by Google) Extremely disappointed with this guesthouse that promises everything and delivers nothing. The place is beautiful, it has everything to be perfect but it lacks essential details. In addition to not having parking, I paid for a room with a view and air conditioning, when I got there the air conditioning didn't work. After checking more than 5 rooms I decided to stay in one that was not clean. I waited for more than an hour for the room to be ready. Then the room key didn't work, it wouldn't lock. I went out at night and when I returned there was no control over the air or the TV in the room anymore. I had to wait another hour for the doorman to resolve it (this was at 3 am). I bought a room with a double bed, they put two beds of different density together, we slept very poorly. Breakfast is very poor and they do not provide shampoo and conditioner. It's not worth the price. The staff are polite but the quality of the service makes us not want to come back. A feather. I do not recommend.

Extremamente decepcionada com essa pousada que promete tudo e não entrega nada. Lugar é lindo tem tudo para ser perfeito mas peca em detalhes essenciais. Além de não ter estacionamento, paguei por um quarto com vista e ar, cheguei lá o ar não funcionava. Após verificar mais de 5 quartos decidi ficar em um que não estava limpo. Esperei por mais de 1h o quarto ficar pronto. Em seguida a chave do quarto não funcionava, não trancava. Sai à noite e quando retornei não tinha controle do ar nem da TV no quarto mais. Tive que esperar mais 1h o porteiro resolver (isso as 3h da manhã ). Comprei quarto com cama de casal, colocaram duas camas de densidade diferente juntas, dormimos super mal. Café da manhã é bem fraco e não fornecem shampoo e condicionador. Não vale o preço. Os funcionários são educados mas a qualidade do serviço faz a gente não querer voltar mais. Uma pena. Não recomendo.

The complex houses the renowned Bohemia Brewery, a national heritage site built in neoclassical style in 1853.

The tour includes tastings of three different Bohemia beers and provides insight into the brewery's heritage.

Casa de Santos Dumont, once the residence of Alberto Santos-Dumont, a renowned Brazilian aviator and inventor, has now been converted into a museum dedicated to preserving his pioneering work in aviation. This heritage museum showcases his significant contributions to the field and serves as a testament to his historical significance. The house, which was specifically designed by Dumont himself, provides visitors with an immersive experience by featuring replicas of his inventions and exhibits that highlight his life and achievements.
Beautiful place with beautiful history!

Unfortunately, not even half the information in the exhibition are translated into English. Also we didn’t find any film like it’s suggested in other comments. All in all, I’d say that it’s not really worth it if you don’t understand Portuguese very well. Which would be okay, but since the prices and basic information at the entrance are written in English, you’d expect otherwise. House is cute and if you’d like to know how it looks from the inside, it may be worth a visit. If you (again from an English speaking perspective) want to learn about Santos Dumont, you might be better off reading Wikipedia.

Beautiful site with a rich history and gorgeous scale replicas of Santos' creations, and the original house designed by Santos Dumont himself. The entrance fee is decent, and they offer a video (with English subtitles) that tells the true story of Mr. Dumont. This is a must-visit site for fans of aviation history. Keep in mind the stairs are steep (which is part of the original history of the house), but there is an elevator available for people who have difficulty.

It is a super small museum, it takes you probably 30 Minutes to see everything. It is very interesting if you are a fan of history and specially the history of the planes. The only downside is that the infrastructure there is quite bad. And it is super small, so if you go on a busy day, it will be impossible to go in.

The Quitandinha Palace, a grand and historically significant building in picturesque surroundings, was originally a lavish resort. Constructed in the Norman French style between 1941 and 1946, it served as a hotel that welcomed renowned figures like Carmen Miranda and Walt Disney. Today, it functions as both a cultural center and popular tourist destination. Open to the public, visitors can explore its interiors or appreciate its splendid facade while relaxing on the well-maintained lawns.
The massive Quitandinha,
"temple of gambling," A Stunning former Casino and now a Stately Hotel, Situated in the bloom-bedecked "city of flowers," Petrópolis high in the mountains an hour's drive from Rio,

It’s not the way the tourism should work. I came a long way to see the palace, but this people don’t care about your time nor the cultural heritage they represent. So come with your own guide, or avoid this place at all. Disappointing.

It’s a short stop before Imperial Palace that you must stop and visit on your Petropolis trip.

Each room has its own personality and characteristic - for a purpose. The kitchen although empty just shows how big and thought through this place once was.
There’s a hotel on the top floor which I think would be nice. Petropolis itself is a cozy and cute little town. Very different to buzzing Rio!
