Belem, BrazilCapital City
Follows Brazil Residency Rules. Check Digital Nomad & Retiree Pathways →
With a population of just 61,997, Belem is a far cry from the bustling metropolises of southern Brazil. The city's colonial charm comes with a persistent bureaucratic headache, and the tropical rainforest climate means drenching rains year-round. While the Ver-o-Peso market and Amazon Biopark Zoo offer plenty of local color, Belem is best suited for outdoor enthusiasts willing to brave the humidity and red tape.
