City: Belo Horizonte
State of Minas Gerais - Brasil
Place: Lagoa da Pampulha (Pampulha`s Lake)
-----------
Pampulha
-----------
Some distance north of the centre of Belo Horizonte is the
luxurious district of Pampulha, built around an artificial
lake which is overlooked by some of the finest modern
buildings in the city – the Museu de Arte, the modernist
Igreja de Sao Francisco and the Casa do Baile. They are
instantly recognizable as the work of architect Oscar
Niemeyer, creator of Brasilia, and landscape designer Roberto
Burle Marx – both of whom, with their socialist ideals, were
presumably horrified by the subsequent development of the
area as a rich residential district.
Belo Horizonte`s main football stadium, the Mineirao, is also
situated in prestigious Pampulha. With a capacity of 130,000,
the Mineirao is a world-class stadium (in fact the world’s
second-largest covered stadium), but it’s rarely more than
half full. One of Brazil’s better teams, Atletico Mineiro
(that’s my soccer team!!!),
play here and they’re worth catching if you’re in Belo
Horizonte on a Sunday when they’re playing at home. Local
derbies, especially against Cruzeiro, are torrid and very
entertaining affairs, but they often end with the destruction
of a large number of the city’s buses. The #2004 bus passes by,
but like all bus journeys to Pampulha, you should allow an hour
to travel from the centre. Entrance costs around $4, or $5 for
the arquibancada (stands).

Brazilians race to adopt abandoned baby floating in lake :(

What an interesting color solution! Looks like retro style...
And you are slowly taking us all around Brazil, Rodrigo! :) Soon, we all will know where is what in there, and the whole history of your place! That's actually super, because - to think - how likely is that at least some of us will ever get there...
Thank you!! :)
