A Travel Itinerary
<download .pdf now>

Most travelers are just passing through Belo Horizonte on their way to Ouro Preto or one of the other historical towns in the area. One day and one night is a pretty typical stay in BH (bee agah, as the locals say), and that's plenty of time to partake of the city's finest attractions, food and nightlife. You may even want to come back and do it all again when you've seen enough historical churches and gold museums around the historical towns of Minas Gerais. This itinerary covers all major attractions and shopping in Belo Horizonte and contains a special section on the Gruta da Lapinha. Plus, you get the "Best of" list of everything great in the city.
