Ouro Preto Vacation Guide
An old minning city that has since become a World Heritage Site by Unesco due to its pure architectural beauty.
Set in the centre of a lush green valley, Ouro Preto or the City of the Black Gold, is such a contrast to the Brazilian cities such as Rio. In Contrast, Ouro Preto seems to be set in the olden days still. With a church around every corner and really old beat up vintage cars lining the streets.

São Jao del Rei. was the first colonial gold mining town in the state of Minias Geras that we decided to visit. At every stop on the 6 hour bus journey, I´d turn to someone and ask Àqui São Jao del Rei?´ in my best Portuguese accent. Each time, I was met with a blank stare, then repeated the q…
