Palmas was founded on May 20, 1989, and was designed to be the capital of the state of Tocantins. The landscape is marked by large green areas, with palm trees that beautify the city and reflect its name. The lakes and urban parks provide a pleasant environment, ideal for outdoor activities. The planned urbanization ensures modern infrastructure, while the proximity to nature offers opportunities for ecotourism, highlighting the environmental richness of the region.
