Located in the micro-region of Guaratinguetá, Potim is a city that attracts the sympathy of any visitor at first sight, due to its great natural beauties.
Its streets, narrow and flat, shelter simple and hospitable people, typical of the interior cities.
With basically rural characteristics, Potim is a pleasant place, prone to rest and relaxation for those who want the tranquility of the countryside.
Despite the peace, the city has traditional cultural manifestations, such as the Festa do Peão de Potim.
With several shows, typical food stalls and an amusement park, the party, which opens the region's rodeo circuit, is a great choice for those who like a lot of action.
