Local knowledge for Belo Horizonte

Where to stay

Santa Tereza, the hilly neighborhood above downtown with studios and bars along Rua Oriente and around Largo do Ó, is where most budget travelers land. Floresta and Lagoinha are cheaper and a short bus ride from the center if Santa Tereza hostels are full.

Getting around

  • Lunch at Mercado Central (Rua Augusto de Lima, 744) costs just a few reais for a full prato feito. Walk past the entrance stalls and eat at the inner counters where locals actually go.
  • The Move BRT from Praça da Estação covers most of the city on a single fare. Take it to Pampulha to see the Niemeyer church and lakeside park without paying taxi prices.
  • Book at least two months ahead for Carnival (February or March depending on the year). Dorms in Santa Tereza and Savassi sell out completely and nightly rates can triple from the posted price.

When to go

May, June, and September are the cheapest months to book. Hostels fill fast for Carnival and again during New Year's week in late December.
