Vilhena, Administrative center in Rondônia, Brazil.
Vilhena stands at an altitude of 594 meters in eastern Rondônia, making it one of the highest municipalities in the Brazilian state.
The municipality gained its independence from Porto Velho in 1977 through Law No. 6448, signed by President Ernesto Geisel on October 11.
Five professional football teams, including Ajax F.C., Barcelona F.C., and CA Rondoniense, represent the strong athletic presence in the municipality.
The Brigadeiro Camarão Airport connects Vilhena to major Brazilian cities through daily flights operated by Azul Airlines to Cuiabá.
The region transformed from cattle ranching to agriculture, reducing its cattle population from 900,000 in 1991 to 116,426 by 2005.
