PLU is the airport code for Pampulha Airport, a city airport of Belo Horizonte, the capital of the state of Minas Gerais in southeastern Brazil. Pampulha handles domestic and regional flights close to the city, while Belo Horizonte's main international gateway, Confins, lies further out. Belo Horizonte is one of Brazil's largest cities, a lively modern metropolis ringed by mountains, known for its warm hospitality, its buzzing bar and food scene, and as a gateway to the historic colonial towns of Minas Gerais, such as Ouro Preto, famous for their baroque churches. The Pampulha district itself is notable for its modernist architecture around an artificial lake, including works by the great architect Oscar Niemeyer, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Belo Horizonte is reached by flights into Pampulha and Confins and by road. The climate is warm, with a wet summer and a drier, milder winter.
