Natal will be part of Route 33

Recife

The governments of four touristic cities in Northeast of Brazil have joined forces to create the Route 33; the idea is investing in marketing to stimulate travellers to visit all four cities along the route, like Americans do with the Route 66.
The name Route 33 comes from the proximity of the road with Meridian 33.

The cities are Natal (in the State of Rio Grande do Norte), João Pessoa (in Paraíba), Recife (in Pernambuco) and Maceió (in Alagoas).
The approximated distances from Natal are: João Pessoa, 200 km; Recife, 300 km; Maceió, 580 km.
