Belo Horizonte & Ouro Preto
Baroque churches dripping in gold leaf in a colonial mining town frozen in the 1700s, a modernist lakeside district designed decades later by the same architect who did Brasília, and a bar culture built entirely around small plates and ice-cold draft beer.
The best time to visit Belo Horizonte & Ouro Preto is May–Aug, when typical daytime highs reach about 29°C (85°F). Local time there is 03:21 (UTC-3).
