BHz Brazil review

I was in Belo Horizonte Tues Dec 12 to Sat Dec 16. The city is not very interesting. Pampulha's lake shoreline (a jaunt up to the St Francis Assisi church ... closed) is completely littered with trash. The art gallery there was closed. 

The surrounding hills of BH are verdant and red soiled; day trips to Inhotim art park and Ouro Preto were splendid.

Grindr was a wash. Stayed Royal Centre Express by Sauna Olimpo. I was not convinced it would be easy to bring guys in, despite others' assertions to the contrary. I would suggest elevator at the street entrance (the multilane avenue) one below where parking lives, as can bypass the reception. I did not try myself. 

Olimpo: nice venue, but sparse on hot guys. Tues, Wed, Thurs I would not have tricked even for free. Maybe a dozen or so, but no real lookers. Friday saw a lot more working guys, similarly not at all attractive compared to Rio, SP, Salvador. More like Fortaleza (and my personal poor albeit brief experience PA). But as the sayings go, sometimes a pearl can be found if you see a unicorn and search up its arse and rifle thru the oysters there, and on Friday one of the most stunning looking guys I have ever seen and done in BRZ (hell, in my lifetime, anywhere) was present and available. He redeemed the trip sexually and person-wise aesthetically, but I am a little pissed that he is there and not interested in travel, and that our encounter was at wrap-up, because I may have to return just for him and the place itself IMHO is really not worth visiting outside of this obsession.

Note I do not respond to inquiries about financial costs. If you must know, go yourself, or read endless argumentative related posts here in this forum. What I am agreeable to sharing is that I obviously barely grazed the sex budget coffers. 

Overall, if your tastes run to muscular-build model-look fellows and you want a few options of these types, I suggest taking a pass on this city. Subjectively, the aforementioned guy was a 9.5, but many 8s and 9s can be had at 117 or 202 in Rio. Though I must say there are a lot of head-turners in public if not Grindr and Olimpo.

What are the names and addresses of the Belo sauna's?

And what time do they get busy?

At least 2 have GPs:
Sauna Olimpo    Rua dos Timbiras, 2635
Sauna 1097     Rua dos Guajajaras, 1097
There maybe more.
 
Google will shows you "Popular times" for Olimpo  for any day of the week. Basically between 6 and 9 pm. Saturday is the big night according to Google.
Google doesn't seem to have amassed enough critical data on 1097 to make a chart of the "popular time".
 
Also there are many saunas which are confirmed without GPs.
 
Al of this is just googling, I have never been to BH.

Sauna 1097 boys are kinda meh. Was there a couple of weeks ago for an hour or 2. Left early. Not sure if it's a bad day/time or always like this.

Olimpo usually is much better. I usually spend most of my days there. Met some good ones and some duds.

There are many saunas sem boys. The one i like is Tres Chic. There are also a lot of 24 hours saunas - good for when one is horny late at night.

BH is definitely not a cosmopolitan city like SP or even Rio. That said, I often found great restaurants using trip advisor (Domenico and Olegario we’re both good) and I will often hire a boy and car and visit one of the many cachaca distilleries in MG. Vale verde was a good one, as I recall.

My aging cognitively diminishing brain forgot to post pictures of a half day in Pampulha exactly a year ago, these shots skirting the plethora of refuse right at the shoreline. [I may also have some photos of INHOTIM lying about]

There are many Oscar Niemeyer' Buildings around BH. Have you seen the administrative city ? It is on the road from the Confins Airport. Even the JK complex was designed by him

Not admin city. Yes JK, 100 metres from lodging. And of course museum in Niteroi, RJ.
