Location

The PCM 2011 - the XI International Meeting on Paracoccidioidomycosis - will be held in the Amácio Mazzaropi Convention Center of the Mazzaropi Country Hotel located in the city of Taubaté, Paraíba Valley region, São Paulo state, Brazil.

We are going to gather in this pleasant farm hotel that concentrates part of the history of the Brazilian movie industry. Our scientific sessions will take place in the Amácio Mazzaropi Convention Center, where once there were cameras, sets and sceneries. The comedy actor Mazzaropi built this studio in the early 70’s and also a hotel surrounding it to accommodate artists and crew members, besides regular guests. He created a beautiful and peaceful place filled with gardens, lakes, free small animals and typical country life settings that have also been used as background in his popular and funny movies.

We envision all the participants staying at this hotel, enjoying simple and bucolic environments and sharing scientific information immersed in a calm and generous state of mind. The hotel is located in the city of Taubaté, which is easily accessed from São Paulo, Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro through safe roads. This is the city from the legendary children’s writer Monteiro Lobato. Therefore, you can’t miss a visit to the original “Sítio do Pica-pau Amarelo”.

The sun will not fail us in May, when the weather is generally pleasant with mildly warm temperatures. Take this chance, then, and spare a couple of extra days to visit other beach and mountain cities nearby.
