Campo Grande, State capital in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil
Campo Grande extends across the Maracaju Mountains at 540 meters elevation, featuring wide streets, gardens, and tree-lined avenues throughout the urban layout.
The settlement began in 1877 when farmers José Antônio Pereira and Manoel Vieira de Sousa established a village near Serra de Maracaju, initially named Santo Antônio de Campo Grande.
The city contains a mixture of populations including Okinawan, Middle Eastern, Armenian, Portuguese, German, Italian, Spanish, Paraguayan, Indigenous, and Afro-Brazilian communities.
Three federal highways intersect in Campo Grande, connecting the city to Bolivia and Paraguay, while an international airport serves domestic and international travelers.
The Parque das Nações Indígenas contains groups of capybaras that roam freely near lakes, creating an unusual urban wildlife experience within city boundaries.
