Mato Grosso do Sul

Mato Grosso do Sul combines immense wetland plains with drier Cerrado uplands in a way that reflects its position within Brazil’s Centre-West. The Pantanal spreads across the state’s western reaches, where seasonal floods shape grasslands, lagoons and the course of the Paraguay River. Eastward, the terrain shifts toward farms, woodland and the limestone country around the Serra da Bodoquena, known for clear rivers and caves. Cattle ranching remains central to regional identity, while Campo Grande serves as the state capital and main urban hub. Created through the division of Mato Grosso in 1977, the state also borders Paraguay and Bolivia. Browse other webcams across Mato Grosso do Sul to place this setting in a wider geographic context.
