Ipixuna do Pará, Municipality in Nordeste Paraense region, Brazil
Ipixuna do Pará is an administrative division in the Nordeste Paraense region of Pará state. The territory spans flat terrain in the Amazon region and features a mix of urban and rural settlement patterns typical of municipalities in this part of Brazil.
The municipality was formally established on January 1, 1993, as an independent administrative division separating from a larger administrative structure. This creation was part of a broader wave of decentralization occurring in Pará during the late 20th century.
The residents here have shaped northern Brazilian identity through local crafts and agricultural traditions tied closely to the Amazon rainforest. You can see this connection in how the community interacts with the land and its natural resources.
The municipality uses area code 91 for communications, which helps with local contact information. Visitors should prepare for tropical climate conditions and expect rural infrastructure typical of the Amazon region.
The name Ipixuna comes from an indigenous language and relates to a concept connected with local forest and its meaning for residents. This naming reflects the deep bond between the community and its Amazon surroundings.
