Timbaúba

Timbaúba is a municipality in the northeastern state of Pernambuco, Brazil. The town sits in a tropical region where agriculture dominates the land, with fields and pastures rolling across the terrain.

Founded in 1879, the settlement grew from farming communities into a recognized administrative center. Over time, it became an official division within Pernambuco's regional structure.

Agriculture defines the rhythm of life here, with sugarcane fields and livestock farming shaping how people work and spend their days. These activities remain central to the local identity and economy.

The town sits roughly 96 kilometers from Recife, making it relatively close to the region's main city for visitors traveling by road. The nearest major airport is in João Pessoa for those arriving by air.

The Goiana River runs through the region and influences the hot tropical climate that defines the area. Temperature remains consistently warm throughout the year.
