Located on the right bank of the Madeira River, which flows down from Bolivia, Porto Velho was founded in 1970 by the construction crews of the telegraph line. With around 427,000 inhabitants, the state capital is a small town in Brazil... However, today it is of major importance as the economic centre of the region and a strategic location for communications and the movement of goods. The city has developed in recent years: expansion of the port, construction of modern terminals for transshipment, business center. Without losing its rural and quiet atmosphere.
