UNESCO World Heritage

In Diamantina, townhouses and mansions from the 18th and 19th centuries are still very common, restored and maintained as if they were new. The streets have conserved their original soapstone pavements, inset with strips of longitudinal blocks, precisely where the carts travelled and the ladies walked. In fact, the Historic Centre of Diamantina looks like the setting for a film with an intriguing story.
