Old Downtown, lot of ugly 60's buildings, but some historicals too (and the nice Park)

To true in regard to Sao Paulo, but still impressive. There's enough density and mid-high rise talls to still make it impressive (one again).

My city in Australia is Sydney, so i can appreciate a mixture of talls, mid-rise and as a result creating density.

I like and appreciate it, therefore an 8 from moi!

i would give this a lower rate because the skyline is full of boxes, but i gave this a 6 because of its density.

9.5 for amazing density, and quality of life.

great skyline
8/10

BH is amazing

Its like a mini-Sao Paulo but, looks nice. 8/10

i want to go there someday.

why do you guys hate so much brazilian boxes??? :)

even the american cities are full of boxes! The only cities wich have almost ONLY true beautiful skyscrapers are the Chinese ones... everything truly out of StarWars there.

I really like the density of brazilian cities. Maybe in the future we will have the same density but with more modern buildings... than you will see!!

7.5/10

Wow!! Freaking dense! :cool: Great city definately... Just needs a well defined skyline or a focal point though ;)

9. I agree with you. It's a planned city, the density is on the downtown. If it had 5 or 6 cool 40-floor buildings, it would be perfect! :)

Nice, really dense but it miss some tall or unique ones.

:eek2: WOW !! Amazing density but, like Fabio said, it misses some tall or unique ones.

woh... that's friggin dense!... i like it. you have a great city... with some new impressive towers it will be fantastic.

Now someone said something that I really agree.
My city is unique, I fucking love it.

9 because BH is very dense and looks like Sao Paulo (at least a part of SP:D)

Nothing special. It's dense,pretty , but there isn't an "unique building". 8/10

it´s a "little" São Paulo... I like São Paulo then I like Belo Horizonte too... :D
8/10

dense but not beautiful...6/10

Another Sao Paolo ... Amazing density !!

Very suprise too see the density of Brazilian's cities

9/10

:nocrook: :cool: :applause: :applause: :wave: Belo Horizonte is my birthplace and I love it. Nothing less than 10!! And it's not a mini São Paulo. It's only BH, Brazil's third largest city(3.500.000 inhabitants) and, of course, the most civilized, beautiful and liveble of all :kiss: :dance: :hug: :hug: :colgate: :colgate:

i love it, i think you could take pictures of the buildings and streets, that could change people's perception of the city being boring

Amazing city... 9/10

9.0

Yeah, the city of Sepultura :rock::righton: :D
Skyline is extremally dense but lacks height. 7/10

Wow! Very dense and impressive city. If the city has nice parks, culture and sport equipments... it would be a good place to live. Nice landscape too!

8/10 for this tipically brazilian city!

I´ve edited and put new pics in the first post of this thread!

Man thats dense, I gave it a 9 because it seems to just keep going and going...

WOW. Im very surprised. I think it has a great skyline. 8/10 :)

It looks massive like a smaller version of Sao Paulo.

Wow!!!!!!! very very intense!!!!!!! GOOD!!! :)

6/10

One of the best looking Brazilian skylines. I give it a 7.5/10.

Awesome city, 8.5/10. :)

and then you Belo Horyzonte, excellent, awesome skyline :D

great skyline
8/10

excelent skyline, very dense... i think that density is more important than huge ass buildings... its like comparing BELHO HORIZONTE with HOUSTON. (I live in HOuston by the way)...Houston has very tall buildings but no density what so ever.. so yeah...if you walk in downtown 10 blocks...the tall buildings are gone... Belho Horizonte you walk and walk and walk and you feel like you are still in the middle of downtown, a great city I gave it a 10 for its density.

7.5/10

6/10 Dense but not special.

9/10

Belo Horizonte is a 110 years city, and a metropolis with 5,1million people, here is a video in english showing the city in 1949 if you see it you'll realize that the city has grown a lot in 61 years, but REMEMBER this city is in Brazil a third world country, not a super rich land like Dubai or United States http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mHGgV2d6PI

Well, I decided to show you some pics from Belo Horizonte that you probably haven't seen yet...

Don't judge the city only for the size of the buildings but for the skyline and the architecture
Hope you like it, unfortunatelly there aren't many good pics of Belo Horizonte but if you have the oportunity to go to Brazil try to go there I'm sure you'll like it.:)
None of these pictures is mine(nenhuma dessas fotos é minha)

watch it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcP-AyffyRw

graeat skyline. 8.5/10

Belo Horizonte is NOT in my Top 5 brazilian cities, but definately is a very impressive urban area. Its skyline is huge, it probably has more skyscrapers than most cities in Latin America (even more than Rio, Caracas, Santiago, Lima, Bogota, Rosario, Mexico City, Medellin, etc.). Only below Baires and Sampa.

8.5/10

7.5/10

Impresive density but almost all the buildings are ugly blocks. But it seems to be a very nice city probably one the best in Brazil. 7.0

8.5/10, like it

bh is very nice!

9/10 dense skyline!

Has more than 4.000 highrises,... :eek:

Great density and very green. Although the buildings are a bit boxy they are quite varied. Brazil has great skylines. 9/10

the word "Belo" in English means beautiful! then that word really fits for the city! 8/10

Wow! I have always been interested in learning some things about BH, as I have some friends who came from there. I had no idea it is so huge!! Thanks for the lovely photos!
