First of all, Belo Horizonte is one of the biggest cities in Brazil. It is the capital of Minas Gerais state. I am from this wonderful place, and I would not change anything in this city during those 18 years I've lived there.

There is a huge and beautiful soccer stadium called Mineirão. Several important soccer games have happened there including a few World Cup games. Also, several amazing concerts took place around the stadium. Music concerts such as Linkin Park and Maroon 5 have even happened there.

There is a huge area around, where people go there to ride their bikes, skateboards and rollers. I used to skateboard there, and it was so much fun.

There is a huge lake near to Mineirão. It is called Lagoa da Pampulha. Pampulha is the neighborhood's name. There is no way to swim in this lake because it is polluted, but people really enjoy running, and riding bikes around it. It is a 12-mile lake, and there is always something nice to do around it. There are several food trucks where you can get some delicious Brazilian food. There are also several restaurants where you can find good food, coconut water and any kind of drink. It is a great place to exercise your body, and spend time with people you like. It has just been considered by UNESCO humanity's cultural heritage.

There are several clubs where people can go out to dance, drink and hang out with their friends. There are also bars with live music playing where you can have a couple drinks and eat. It is a good way to get to know new people and enjoy your free time.

There is an awesome event that happens every Sunday in Belo Horizonte's downtown. It is called Duelo de Mc's. This is a event similar to rhyme battles, but instead of only having the battles, there are a few concerts before it. Those concerts are performed by singers who are aiming to expose their ideas through the music.

During the battles, the MCs show to the audience that they can freestyle well enough to win the battle. They are very smart people that have the ability to use the right words, respect the opponent and be smart enough to make everything rhyme.

There are several beautiful parks and squares that I love. Praça da Liberdade, Praça do Papa are my favorite squares in Belo Horizonte. Concerts take place in these squares. People go there to hang out, practice slackline and practice sports.

The Praça do Papa is located in a very high place. There is a wonderful view. It is a very quiet and cozy place. I love to go there and spend time with my friends.

Those are some of my favorite places in my city.

I might tell as well that I have met almost all of the most important people of my life in this city. I have a strong connection with Belo Horizonte. Therefore, besides all those great places, there are wonderful people in this city.
