Description
Summary:The current work has as objective to present a proposal for a touristic route for Indianópolis/MG, so that the preservation of the city geocultural patrimony can be 76. GeoTextos, vol. 8, n. 2, dez. 2012. L. Bento, T. Martins, P. Oliveira, A. Pedrosa. 75-96 valued, publicized and promoted. From this objective bibliographic revisions were made about the theme, field work in the area of study to identify and characterize the patrimonial elements and, finally, the definition and the elaboration of the geocultural route having the support of the Geographic Information Systems. This route of 64 km comprises representative attractions of the natural and cultural patrimony (material and inmaterial) of the city, such as waterfalls, centennial large houses, churches, among others which permit, through different senses, to perceive in the landscape vestiges of a past which is still present nowadays and a present which also presents traces of modernity.
