Abstract

This article addresses the role of observation in landscape studies and invites readers to consider its use as a methodological tool. The article centres on “observations” adopted by inductive, deductive and dialectic trends that have been established by research paradigms in Geography. To that end, it sets off from a fieldwork experience as an empirical, what happened in the village Fazenda Velha, municipality of Sete Lagoas, state of Minas Gerais. This made it possible to expose redundancies and essentialities arising from the experiences and reflections with the landscape of the place visited. In addition, the practices and experiences with the class showed the success of the paths of our reflections.
