Minas Gerais
Colonial towns, cheese and rich cuisine
Minas Gerais is Brazil's second most populous state and a treasure chest of colonial history, baroque art and distinctive cuisine. The state gave Brazil the pão de queijo, cachaça, and the incomparable feijão tropeiro, and its historic towns — Ouro Preto, Tiradentes, Diamantina — rank among the finest preserved colonial cities in the Americas, many of them UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
