Country: Brazil Teresina is best known as the only capital in Brazil’s Northeast without an Atlantic coastline. North-central Piauí’s capital and largest municipality, it stands 366 kilometres from the sea and ranks among Brazil’s largest cities and state capitals. Across the Parnaíba River, neighbouring Timon forms a continuous urban area with Teresina, creating a metropolitan region of more than 2.8 million people.
