A propriedade — Top Center

Crónicas de Itaperuna
Itaperuna was founded in the 19th century as a coffee-growing hub along the Muriaé River, later diversifying into livestock and industry. Its architecture mixes modest colonial-era buildings with modernist blocks from the 1950s-70s growth spurt. Today, it’s the commercial centre of the Noroeste Fluminense region, known for its rodeo events and local agribusiness. Culturally, the city balances rural traditions (like the annual Expo Itaperuna) with a growing university scene.

💡 Arrive by 7am before the heat and crowds. Bring small bills (R$5, R$10) and a reusable bag. The best cheese is at stall 34—ask for 'queijo minas curado' .
💡 The climb is steep (about 15 minutes on foot from Rua Dr. Luiz Tinoco). Drive if you have a car. No shade, so bring water and a hat. Sunset here is popular with locals—bring a picnic.
💡 Go early on a weekday morning to have the trails almost to yourself. The waterfall pool is shallow but refreshing; bring water shoes as the rocks are slippery.
