Pacaraima

Pacaraima (Portuguese pronunciation: [pakaˈɾajmɐ]) is a municipality located in the northwest of the state of Roraima in Brazil.

Pedra Pintada is a large rock that is covered with ancient indigenous pictographs and other designs of an early culture.

However, colonization would intensify with the full arrival of Brazilians, mainly from the Northeast Region of Brazil, attracted by the dream of easy enrichment with the garimpo.

Access to the city of Pacaraima takes the highway BR-174, which is paved and with good state of conservation.

The seat of the municipality of Pacaraima, on the border of Brazil and Venezuela, is embedded in a region of valleys surrounded by mountains.
