We was travelling around Brazil for the World Cup and whilst staying in Belo Horizonte, we popped over to Ouro Preto. I noticed this place on the way with its American school buses and a small Christ the redeemer statue. I made a note to pop in on the drive back.
What a good decision this was. This place is just jaw dropping. The collection of memorabilia, art, books and general old stuff is staggering. Many things I used to own in my younger days and so on.
We spent a couple of hours taking everything in and has to be one of my favourite moments during our one month stay in Brazil.
I don't know who the owner is but I would like to say Thank you for sharing your collection and letting us wonder freely around this awesome place you have.

A big Area where you can spend some hours with your Kids; some Ways up- but it's okay. They have a Playground ; you can walking around and some Kids met together to play Football. The Restrooms are clean ; we wanted to eat - but it wasn't possible to this Time. It was a nice Day in the Nature; we enjoyed with our Grandchild.

The Tourist Complex of the Station sheltered at the end of the 19th century the old Railway Station and the support facilities for the Dom Pedro II Railway, later called as Central do Brasil. The inauguration of the Railway Station building took place on July 16, 1887 and marked a new phase in the economy of Itabirito, as it stimulated investments in the opening of companies related to the steel, textile and leather sectors. The Tourist Complex of the Station was for a long time in disuse, until in 2002, when by the initiative of the public power it underwent a major reform, and was reinaugurated on September 2003. There are some services that currently operate in the Complex: the Reference Center and Tourist Information (Open times: working days, from 08:00 to 18:00 and on weekends and holidays from 09:00 to 15:00), the Association of Artists and Artisans (Open times: every day from 09:00 to 17:00), the Railroad Hall - used for several events, and the Municipal Public Library . . .

Pra quem é fã do turismo religioso, recomendo visita-la e assistir uma missa como fizemos. Não esta rotineiramente aberta com exceção dos dias de missa onde ela abre antes e ai é possível visita-la todos os espaços internos e externos. Embora com cara de simples por fora, ela é riquíssima nos detalhes por dentro. Aconselho clicar no link do site para conhece-la em detalhes.

O acesso é tranquilo, estrada de terra de poucos metros. Dentro de uma propriedade privada, você paga 10.00 p pessoa para entrar. Lá dentro tem um bar restaurante, banheiros, estacionamento.
As cachoeiras são a carrancas, cascalho e cruzado (trilha mais longa).
Fomos num sábado e estava razoalvemente cheio. Local limpo, agradável. Boas cachoeiras. Dá para passar o dia!
Não fomos mas a cachoeira da Chica dona também é bem perto, mas tem que ir de carro.

Fui informado apos missa na matriz da boa viagem que ela só abre no dia festivo de nossa senhora do Rosario. Externamente a igreja esta em bom estado tendo a praça em frente a ela sido revitalizada em 2016, estar sendo cuidada e tendo um monumento interessante sobre descendentes atuais dos primeiros escravos de Itabirito.
As atrações turísticas religiosas nas cidades e centros históricos ficam a cargo das dioceses e sob controle quanto a abrirem ou não por "n" motivos. Enquanto ninguém decide, perde o turista.
