Brazil's First Planned City

Belo Horizonte was designed from scratch and inaugurated in 1897, the first planned city in Brazil, laid out on a grid crossed by diagonals. Brasília, sixty years later, followed the idea and got the fame.

The clock: Belo Horizonte keeps UTC−3. Oscar Niemeyer's first major commissions were built here at Pampulha in the 1940s, before Brasília existed.
