Pegasusbsb27 · November 20th, 2007, 01:57 AM

Following the exemple of the Brazilian skyscrapercity's Tadeu, I'm proposing a thread about the Brazilian 27 states' capitals...Everyone is invited to help me here!!!

In time: This is the list of Brazilian states and their capitals

STATE - CAPITAL
Acre - Rio Branco
Alagoas - Maceió
Amapá - Macapá
Amazonas - Manaus
Bahia - Salvador
Ceará - Fortaleza
Distrito Federal - Brasília (Wich is, of course, the Nation's capital)
Espírito Santo - Vitória
Goiás - Goiânia
Maranhão - São Luís
Mato Grosso - Cuiabá
Mato Grosso do Sul - Campo Grande
Minas Gerais - Belo Horizonte
Pará - Belém
Paraíba - João Pessoa
Paraná - Curitiba
Pernambuco - Recife
Piauí -Teresina
Rio de Janeiro - Rio de Janeiro
Rio Grande do Norte - Natal
Rio Grande do Sul - Porto Alegre
Rondônia - Porto Velho
Roraima - Boa Vista
Santa Catarina - Florianópolis
São Paulo - São Paulo
Sergipe - Aracaju
Tocantins - Palmas

Here is Belo Horizonte capital of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil's second most populated and industrialized state

General View

Afonso Pena Ave. City's main Avenue

Another view from Afonso Pena Ave.

The state of Minas Gerais Governor's Palace, the Liberty Palace

Bias Fortes Ave

The Municipal Park

Bus Station Square parking lot

St. Joseph's Church

This building is not a church, but the Old Minas Gerais Legislative Building. The Legislative meets in a new building nowdays, but this one is far more interesting. It's a Cultural Center

This is Lourdes Church

The Boa Viagem Church ( city's Cathedral). you can translate to English to something like "Our Lady of Good Voyage"

BH Train Station

Another view from the downtown area

Finally another view of the dense downtown area

More BH pictures found on SkyscraperCity. They are not mine:

OMG, certain Brazilian cities seem so appealing; old and new architecture. Plus the beautiful nature/beaches...

Here you come again...If you don't like the old side of BH, why don't you move to Brasília, for instance?

alejoaoa · November 21st, 2007, 02:04 AM

TEBC · November 21st, 2007, 02:38 AM

seriam legal se postassemos os palacios da justica, do governo e das assembleias legislativas

TEBC · November 21st, 2007, 02:42 AM

Every city has a palace where the governator lives and work, and it palace has its own nickname.

In São Paulo we have the Palácio dos Bandeirantes:

It has this name in honor of the bandeirantes people. Man, usually son of portuguese with indigeans, that went throw the wild forest inside Brazil and made the country big the way it is, taking lands from the spanish.

This is the Palacio da Justica de São Paulo (SP State Court house)

And this is the Palácio 9 de Julho. Where is the Legislative Assembly.

I also missed Savassi, Pampulha and Bevedere, I think you could post some of your great pics, of course if Pegasusbsb doesn't mind...

TEBC · November 21st, 2007, 02:45 AM

Because the State Court House is not enough for the giantism os São Paulo, it needs another two buildings.

JP_Neptune · November 21st, 2007, 03:27 AM

Florianápolis looks pretty impressive

On the other ones, I have to say I'm not a fan of those Lego-type thin highrise buildings from the 1960s/1970s.

Bruno_BL · November 21st, 2007, 04:02 AM
