Great macjake 2012-01-18 8:10

Hi Neyvan
you have peaked my interest.
why are tourists not allowed? what is this area?

funny how there seems to be nobody around, its looks very bare and lifeless of a place.
nice colors and sky...but i want to know more.
Cheers
craig

Lightbulb To macjake: Not allowed

Hi Craig!
That's a preserved area. The surroundings are full of towns and Brasília (a metropolis is not too far away). Besided that, the region was almost devasted by years, decades, maybe centuries of exploitation (gold and other minerals). So, what's left is so weak and sometimes it's closed even for tourists to try to recover some of the nature that once existed there!
Hopefully I could explain it a bit to you!
Cheers,
Neyvan
