A modern, planned city in central Brazil,
GOIA?NIA
was founded in 1933, becoming the state capital four years later. Over a million strong, cheaper than BrasAlia, with some good hotels and only 209km from the federal capital, the city is a good stopping-off point, since it is very well connected by road to most other Brazilian cities. GoiA?nia earns its living as a market centre for the surrounding agricultural region which specializes in rice and soya, and while it lacks the futuristic style of BrasAlia it makes up for it with a more genuine heartbeat and, with its less arid climate, a lusher, greener environment.
