About Ouro Preto
Ouro Preto is a colonial town in the Serra do Espinhaço mountains of eastern Brazil. It's known for its baroque architecture, including bridges, fountains and squares, and its steep, winding cobbled streets. Central Tiradentes Square is named after the martyr for Brazilian independence. There are numerous churches and chapels all over town, including the 18th-century St. Francis of Assisi Church.
