Goiás, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Brazil, is a colonial town renowned for its 18th- and 19th-century architecture and historical charm. With cobblestone streets, simple churches, and red-tiled houses, it reflects its past as a gold mining and administrative center. Recognized by UNESCO in 2001, it preserves Brazil’s early inland settlement heritage. Goiás remains a quaint symbol of the country’s colonial history.
