Buranhém River


The Buranhém River - also known as Rio do Peixe - is a watercourse flowing through the states of Minas Gerais and Bahia, in Brazil. It ends its course at the Atlantic Ocean just by the city of Porto Seguro. The city holds a distinctive place in Brazilian history as in 1500 it was the first landing point of Portuguese navigators commanded by Pedro Álvares Cabral, who discovered Brazil.
