PORTO DE GUAPÉ-MG: Uma nova opção de turismo e valorização da história da cidade

Abstract

Guapé is a city bathed by Lake Furnas and has all its history around it. The present work aims to present a study about the city and how the lake has transformed its landscape over the years. Guapé is close to Capitólio, being connected by a ferry that is one of the main accesses to the city, which presents itself as a potential source of income for the municipality, but which still does not have adequate infrastructure to receive tourists and other users. Surveys, interviews and visits were carried out that allowed a survey of users and the flow of people who pass through it daily, observing an opportunity to modify the landscape from the proposal of a port that will be able to better serve visitors, workers and tourists who enjoy of that area.
