A complete country
Our national territory is considered a complete country, with all its natural beauty and also its fauna and flora, with beach destinations, with a lot of history, culture, its many museums and places with a culture that is very curious, make our Brazil a beautiful place and with many alternative destinations for all its visitors.
Mount Roraima
Let's start our itinerary of alternative destinations in Brazil with Mount Roraima, with its very primitive landscape and a mountain that gave rise to the state of Roraima, which is the highest in this region, at 2,810 meters high and well above sea level, with its numerous cliffs and to reach its top you need to go to Venezuela and climb a side that is less steep on this mountain.
From up there, the fearless traveler who manages to get there after a trek that can last 6 to 8 days, through a savannah region and be taken through a landscape that is quite surreal, with its caves, lagoons, plants that are carnivorous, its different little birds that can be seen and it will be a breathtaking tour.
Parintins
A visit to Parintins in June can give you a chance to participate in a major festival that brings together many folklore associations, with a special focus on the Boi Garantido competition, which is represented by the color red, and the Boi Caprichoso, which is represented by the color blue, with a very strong presence in this region of Brazil.
In Parintins, this festival lasts for about three nights, with performances of bulls dancing to the sound of many toadas, rescuing the entire past of a people, with their myths and legends that are from the Amazon Rainforest. A festival of great culture in this Brazilian region.
Jalapao
Jalapão in Tocantins is another region that is considered quite alternative for its visitors. A place full of waterfalls with crystal clear waters, with natural pools, its orange dunes that are cut by rivers and its plateaus that impress with their golden grass, used for local crafts, that shine in the sun as if they were gold.
A region that today is still little explored by local tourism and what is due to this is its difficulty of access, with most of its roads unpaved and very bad, making tourism impossible during the rainy season and for this reason the best time to visit this place is in the month of September and a time that coincides with the golden grass harvest.
Mouth of the São Francisco River
This is an alternative destination designed for those who want to get to know the São Francisco River, which runs for almost three thousand kilometers, and along the way, travelers can see how people earn their living, seeing many fishermen who take the fish caught in this region of the São Francisco River back to their homes.
The waters of the São Francisco River meet the sea at a point 130
kilometers, in a small village that is known in this region as
Piaçabuçu, for its visitors, know that it is possible to take a boat to get there, with total safety on the way, with a landscape along the way that is a true delight for those who enjoy this trip.
Pantanal
A famous destination, which is considered quite alternative by its tourists, which is the largest area that floods, completely changing its entire landscape at certain times of the year, which are the so-called high and low tide periods, which run from October to March.
During this time the rivers and lakes become a sea, which can be
explored by boat or on horseback, with its main tourist activity being sport fishing.
Salt mines
In Salinas, and more precisely in Minas Gerais, the Cachaça Festival takes place in July, with an artisanal cachaça, which is the most awarded in the world, which is called cachaça havana, which costs more than R$$ 400.00 per bottle. In total, there are around 20 labels of artisanal cachaças that are produced in this region and many with cheaper prices.
The many stills in this region are also open to the public, so that visitors can visit and appreciate the different stages of production and the many cachaças that can be tasted directly from the stills or in the bars in this city that sell the bottles so that they can be purchased by travelers and taken home.
