Brazil has its gigajungle: the Amazon forest, at a few thousand kilometers from Belo Horizonte.
But you don’t need to travel that far to see monkeys: in Mangabeiras Park, located in the south of Belo Horizonte, curious monkeys can be watched.

These little monkeys are called ‘micos’, black tufted marmosets.

Curious monkeys that cautiously approach the visitors…

And intensely observe the human race…

They live in small groups.

They have a very long, furry tail.

On the horizon: Belo Horizonte, which means ‘beautiful horizon’.

Mangabeiras Park is an ideal location to relax and to enjoy the nature.
