My hometown is Divinópolis. It is a populous city, but doesn't have a good infraestructure. It is know for the clothes productios. Some parts of the city were planned, so the center has large streets.

Is your hometown different from the city where you live? How?

sophiavb2009 — 2025-09-13 18:31:41 UTC

Yes, because in March 2025 I moved to Varginha. Divinópolis is bigger than Varginha, and has more organized streets, but Varginha has better infraestructure, with a btter mall, squares, and others

I would like to visit Veneza. I consider it so beautiful with an amazing landscape, with an interesting architeture, culture to know.

Curiosity: It is the main island of Veneto. So, there is no car there, you have to arrive by train.

Informations: Italy has the best culinary in the world, Veneza has beautiful gotics and renascentists biuldings and arts.

Specific place to visit: I would like to visit the Grand Canal Venice in Veneza.

Cruz de Todos os Povos - Tourist Attraction in Divinóplis

In Divinópolis, there is Cruz de Todos os Povos. It is still being contruct, but worth visiting there. You can get there by car or by bicicle, if you want more adventure, because it stays in a high hill. There, you can relax, appreciate the beautiful landscape or pray. A curiosity about it is that it will be the highest iluminated cross in Brazil. The others iluminited cross are localizated in mexico and Lebanon.

Oral Tour Guide - SCRIPT

Hi guys! Today, I want to show you one of the most important places in my hometown Divinópolis! The Teatro Usina Gravatá was founded in 1932 and was the first plant in Latin America to produce alcohol from cassava.

After the plant was deactivated, it was transformed into a theater and received this name in honor of its engineer: Antônio Gonçalves Gravatá.

Today, it is an important cultural center for the city and hosts artists from the region, school presentations, and memorable shows.

I chose this place because the theater has been a part of my life in the city—I performed ballet and presented school projects there!

I hope you enjoyed my oral tour guide. See you soon!
