Introducing the State of Minas Gerais Hello Everyone. Today I’ll introduce you the Southern Brazilian State of Minas Gerais. It’s the second most populous, third richest and fourth large state of Brazil. Ingrown between loads of beautiful not too high mountains in Brazil’s countryside, Minas Gerais has an agrarian and mining economy mostly, however, in its bigger cities tech industries are too important as its farms. Better known as Pão de Queijo land, Minas Gerais is rich in diverse food, culture, historical cities, and awesome places to practice radical sports like skydiving, mountain climbing, falls climbing and rappel. Despite of not having beaches, Minas Gerais has amazing waterfalls and lakes (natural and handmade by hydroelectrics) leading people to have a not so beach life and a much more camping life. Full of museums of history, paleontology (Peiropolis, which is also a village in the city of Uberaba), loads of big and small historical cities (like Ouro Preto, Tiradentes, Mariana, São João del Rey, Diamantina) and all of this old stuff people can see past and modern times living side by side in cities like Belo Horizonte (the state capital city) as well. Belo Horizonte is plenty of modern museums and modern architecture. For those who like drink, Belo Horizonte – the Brazilian bar capital city – have more bar per capita than any other city, a busy night and a calm days if compared to São Paulo or Rio de Janeiro’s days.

Introducing the State of Minas Gerais

Hello Everyone.

Today I’ll introduce you the Southern Brazilian State of Minas Gerais. It’s the second most populous, third richest and fourth largest state of Brazil. Ingrown between lots of beautiful not too high mountains in Brazil’s countryside, Minas Gerais has an agrarian and mining economy mostly, however, in its bigger cities tech industries are too important as its farms. (are just as important as the farms?)

Better known as Pão de Queijo land, Minas Gerais is rich in diverse food, culture, historical cities, and awesome places to practice radical sports like skydiving, mountain climbing, falls climbing and rappel. Despite of not having beaches, Minas Gerais has amazing waterfalls and lakes (natural and handmade by hydroelectrics) leading people to have a not having so much of a beach life and a much but more of a  camping life.

Full of museums of history, paleontology (Peiropolis, which is also a village in the city of Uberaba), lots of big and small historical cities (like Ouro Preto, Tiradentes, Mariana, São João del Rey, Diamantina) and all of this old stuff people can see from the past and more modern times living side by side in cities like Belo Horizonte (the state capital city) as well. Belo Horizonte has  plenty of modern museums and modern architecture. For those who like to drink, Belo Horizonte – the Brazilian bar capital city – have more bars per capita than any other city, a busy night and a calm days if compared to São Paulo or Rio de Janeiro’s days.

Well done Mariana, but the words 'stuff' and 'loads' are very informal.  They aren't good words for a text.

Minas Gerais received mainly Portuguese people on the time of colonization, and different of some parts of Brazil, there they came to live because of the golden age. Ouro Preto, in that time, became bigger than Lisbon. I heard it looks very much with Portugal's noth. Also, mainly, it was there where the settlers came from.

It's incredibly similar to many places in Portugal's countryside. It's actually amazing how similar it looks.
