"Serra do Sincorá"
Serra do Sincorá is a mountain range located in the Brazilian state of Bahia, an integral part of Chapada Diamantina and which has its most beautiful natural attractions (such as Morro do Pai Inácio) and human attractions (such as the historic cities of Lençóis, Palmeiras, Mucugê and Andaraí), constituting an important geological, paleontological and ecological site.
It has an extension of 80 km, projecting an average of 800 meters above the bordering valleys - reaching up to 2000 m in altitude, forming valleys and canyons.
The Serra was the central nucleus of diamond exploration, in a race that began in the 1840s, generating the influx of tens of thousands of explorers in search of diamonds that, having emerged from kimberlites, by alluvium were taken to the beds of the rivers.
