Tocantins Essentials

Tocantins showcases the diverse landscapes of the Brazilian Cerrado, from the world's largest river island, Bananal, to the golden dunes of Jalapão. This region is characterized by unique fervedouros—artesian springs where high-pressure water prevents swimmers from sinking—and turquoise lagoons like Lagoa do Japonês. Key features include the horseshoe-shaped Cachoeira da Velha and the 18th-century colonial stone architecture of Natividade. The Araguaia and Tocantins rivers provide seasonal river beaches, while deep sandstone canyons and emerald-green pools define the state's rugged interior.
