Belo Horizonte Travel Guide
Brazil
Belo Horizonte is a large city in south-eastern Brazil, with a population of 6,247,889. It is an inland destination rather than a coastal one, so the city itself is not a base for beach trips.
Travellers arriving by air can use Tancredo Neves International Airport or Pampulha Belo Horizonte Airport. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Belo Horizonte, making the city better suited to an urban stay than a short beach break.
