Markets Minas Gerais

It is impossible to pass through Belo Horizonte without visiting the central market. You can find everything there. It sometimes looks like a Moroccan souk, which we love. Its 400 shops offer fruits and vegetables, flowers, medicinal herbs, objects of piety and handicrafts. The popular stalls here are a tradition in BH. People talk with beer and picada in hand. There is even a cooking school where you can take free courses in mineira cooking. One of the 10 most beautiful markets in the world according to the "TAM Nuvens" guide.

Every Sunday, the "art and gastronomy" market unfolds on the cobblestones of São José Street, with street artists, jazz processions, art and craft stands and restaurants that set up tables on the pavement for the occasion.This historic shopping street is restored to its former glory and is closed to cars so that pedestrians can enjoy this true cultural corridor. Artists and craftsmen display their wares and bars and restaurants set up tables on the sidewalks.
