Can anyone tell me about Belo Horizonte Brazil?

someone who lives there or been there and knows about the city.

What Carol said was a stupid thing. I live in Belo Horizonte. Belo Horizonte has a good climate. Due to its altitude (900m) it is not so hot as some Brazilian cities. It is hot, but a nice hot.
In Belo Horizonte you will never feel the hot that you feel in cities like New York in the summer. You will never feel very cold also. The temperatures are EVER between 12o and 30o celsius. It has a population 3.000.000 habitants. Most of the are white (Portuguese and Italian blood), mixed and black. There is a lot of poverty but there is a lot of wealthy also, very unequal, like all Brazilian city. It's a bit violent, but it's OK. Just avoid walking alone in the streest during the night.

it is the captial of the state of minas gerais.

Belo Horizonte (a Portuguese name meaning "beautiful horizon", is the third largest metropolitan area and fifth largest city in Brazil (after S茫o Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador and Fortaleza). It is the capital of Minas Gerais state, located in the southeastern region of the country. With a population of almost 2.4 million and over 5 million in the official metropolitan area, Belo Horizonte 鈥?or "Beag谩" as it is more familiarly known from the sound of its initials BH in Portuguese 鈥?is a place of intense economical and cultural activity. It has a good infrastructure for national and international events.

The first establishments in the region occurred in the early 1700's, but the city as it is known today was planned and constructed in the 1890's, in order to replace Ouro Preto as the capital of Minas Gerais. It is nowadays notorious for the contrast between contemporary and classical buildings, being in fact the location of many modern Brazilian architecture icons, most notably the Pampulha
