People looking to invest their money in Brazilian property should travel to some of the lesser-known places and a recent visitor has said that the area of Lencois provides a “great location” for real estate investors.

According to Gringoes.com, Travel writer Alison McGowan stayed in the Alcino Estalagem hidden pousada recently and gave the area a glowing review. She said that Lencois is the main town in the Chapada Diamantina … outside high season, it maintains a well preserved colonial atmosphere with very little traffic and cafes where tourists can sit and drink and chat or work without worrying when they might say it’s time to leave.

Lencois, a county in the state of Bahia, Brazil, lies in the diamond highlands. Ms McGowan also commented that as it was once the business centre of the Brazilian diamond trade, the colonial buildings show off a wealth “beyond dreams”.Sight-seeing in Lencois consists of all natural activities. Tourists can explore caves, swim in natural pools and waterfalls, and mountain bike old miner tracks. The Chapada Diamantina National Park is one of the most fascinating natural parks Brazilians. The mountainous landscape harbors an extraordinary variety of ecosystems. The Brazilian property expert recommended the trips to Poco Azul and the caves of Lapadoce and Torrinha is ‘a must’ for adventure lovers.
