I would really like to rate this city but I need more pics. Those two just don't give much an impression of what the town looks like. Post more if you have them

here are a few other pics I just found on the net. Not the best or biggest but after seeing them I give the city a 7.5 for it's natural setting and the tower blocks, they look really cool together.

Here's another pic, not very recent tho...

6.5/10


Not too much, but for its size and the city which is really cool I gave a 6.5.

Comparing to a typical Brazilian city with the same size, Blumenau does very good

8.5/10 ! :)

Beautiful nature setting
Looks peaceful with greenery

Looks like a beautiful city, has some nice buildings and density. Maybe a bit more height and modern looking buildings would be better.

Nice for 270.000 inhabitants

Not bad !!

I'm not a fan of the city's taller white residentials, which are very ugly in my opinion. On the other hand, I love the ancient buildings, the smaller new ones, the churchs and the natural scenary with the mountains, flowers and some tropical trees. Blumenau is for me the most beautiful city in Brazil's countryside alongside with Maringá. I would risk to say that neither Maringá is as beautiful as Blumenau.


I thus give it a 9. If the ugly residentials be demolished in the future it will deserve a 10. :okay:

a whoping 1 pic, how am I suppose to rate?

Ooh, nevermind... :bash:

Skyline doesn't really impress me 4.5/10

Alright for a 300000 pop. city. :) Actually, I think it's really nice.

8.5

Not much tall stuff right now but it does have great geography and street interaction.
7/10

BTW, the poll is wrong, it needs to be in increments of 0.5.
Check other polls in this forum to see what it should be like. :)

hehe so can you close this thread?

He can't.

He isn't a moderator on this forum. ;)
