Catimbau National Park, also known as Catimbau Valley, is a national park in Pernambuco created in 2002. It encompasses the municipalities of Buíque, Ibimirim, and Tupanatinga, between the Agreste and Sertão regions of Pernambuco. The park is the second largest archaeological park in Brazil and preserves one of the last areas of the Caatinga biome.

The immense rock walls have unique shapes and conceal an intense mysticism. The valley has several archaeological sites, caves, prehistoric cemeteries, and rock paintings that are over six thousand years old.
