Hotels in Minas Gerais, Brazil

Minas Gerais, in southeastern Brazil, has a tropical highland climate with mild, dry winters (60-70°F / 15-21°C) perfect for hiking to the Cascata do Salto waterfall or exploring the 18th-century gold rush towns like Ouro Preto. During the wetter, warmer summers (70-85°F / 21-29°C), you can sample the region's famous pão de queijo at Belo Horizonte's Mercado Central or tour the Inconfidência Museum in Ouro Preto. The dry season from May to September offers clear skies for visiting the historic churches of Tiradentes, while the green season from October to April brings lush landscapes and lower prices for accommodations.
