The "Velho Chico" is an important river in Brazil, passing through several states and benefiting millions of people. Along its route, the river faces serious degradation problems, such as sewage and deforestation, which shows the poor management of natural resources. Despite this, the river has cultural and religious significance for riverside communities, with several legends and rituals surrounding its waters.
