Praça Raul Soares, Central square at the junction of major avenues in Belo Horizonte, Brazil
The square contains symmetrical gardens with geometric patterns, walkways, and a central fountain surrounded by carefully maintained green spaces.
Included in the original urban plan of Belo Horizonte, the square opened in 1964 at the intersection of Amazonas, Olegário Maciel, and Bias Fortes avenues.
The Municipal Government of Belo Horizonte designated this French-inspired square as a protected cultural heritage site, preserving its architectural elements.
The square connects to multiple public transportation routes and provides access to numerous shops, restaurants, and commercial establishments in the surrounding area.
Four major avenues converge at this circular square, creating a geometric pattern that defines the urban layout of central Belo Horizonte.
