Acará, Municipality in Pará, Brazil
Acará is a municipality in Pará state in northern Brazil, spread across a large flat landscape. The area sits in the Amazon region and is shaped by the river that shares its name, which connects communities and supports local life.
The settlement developed in the 1800s along the river during the colonial period. It became an independent municipality in 1935 after separating from Belém.
The name comes from Tupi language and refers to a fish species found in local waters. Traditional practices remain part of daily life in the region, shaping how people work and interact with the land.
The dry season offers better travel conditions on roads and river routes. Keep in mind that some areas are only reachable by local boats or on foot, so plan accordingly for exploration.
The region is known for large-scale cassava cultivation, which shapes both the local economy and the appearance of the landscape. Agricultural activities dominate the area and connect communities to regional markets.
