Parque Stadual da Vila Velha

 
Parque Estadual da Vila Velha

26km/16mi south-east of Ponta Grossa and 93km/58mi north-west of Curitiba is the Parque Estadual (State Park) de Vila Velha, which the native Indians and Portuguese settlers believed was a ruined city. In fact the "ruins" are the result of tectonic movements and erosion, which over millions of years have carved out caves and created bizarre rock formations, sometimes resembling human figures or animals.
