The city is 99 km away from Recife, the capital city of Pernambuco. Gameleira has a bus terminal, a public library, two state schools and several municipal schools.
History
The district of Gameleira was created by Provincial Law 763 (Lei Provincial n° 763), on July 11, 1867. It was then part of the municipality of Sirinhaém. In 1872, it became a village (Lei Provincial n° 1.057). In 1860, the Recife–São Francisco Railroad [pt] established a station in Gameleira.
