Goiás

Goiás is best known within Brazil for the Cerrado landscapes protected in Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park. Occupying much of the country’s Central-West, the state combines savanna grasslands, scrub and gallery forests, with the Araguaia River marking part of its western frontier. Goiás City, the former state capital, preserves a colonial historic centre recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Goiânia, the present capital, supplies the state’s urban counterpoint, while pequi, a fragrant Cerrado fruit, remains central to local cooking. The dry and rainy seasons strongly shape travel and rural life. Move on to other webcams in Goiás to compare landscapes and settings around Brazil’s Central-West.
