In the 17th and 18th century the area of Minas Gerais was the richest area in South America, there was a huge amount of gold in mines, rivers and on the side of the mountains. Because of this many cities were formed around the richest area, cities like Ouro Preto, Mariana, Congonhas do Campo, Tiradentes and others had a rich architecture and arts.

What to take

You should take clothes for  both hot and cold weather, warm coats and pants for the night, a pair of jeans  will be useful. Take some leggings to wear during the day because it is warm and  they are good to go jogging, believe me you will need to walk a lot! Always take a backpack with you with a coat and things that you think will be necessary in it, be careful there are churches that you CAN’T enter wearing shorts. Take a pair of tennis shoes to walk during the day and boots to go into the mines. You can take another pair of sneakers or sandals to wear at night. Take a pair of sunglasses because the sun is really strong there, and wear sunblock. Don’t forget the insect repellent!
