Following our journey, we'll reach Cocal da Estação, a town tied to its historic train station. Did you know it's one of the oldest in the state? With the station's arrival, the entire city's commerce centralized around it. As we continue our route, we'll share all the fascinating details with you.
Next up is the church of Nossa Senhora do Rosário, a genuine enigma in the history of Cocal da Estação.
