Location
Abadiânia is part of the Entorno do Distrito Federal statistical micro-region. Neighboring municipalities are:
- North: Pirenópolis, Corumbá de Goiás, and Alexânia
- South: Silvânia
- East: Anápolis
- West: Alexânia
The distance to the state capital, Goiânia, is 88 km. Highway connections with Brasília, Anápolis and Goiânia are made by BR-060 (also called in the Brasília-Anápolis stretch as Belém–Brasília Highway).[2] It is known as the City of Spiritual Cures because of the presence of psychic healer, João de Deus, who attracts many national and international tourists seeking cures for their maladies.
Located between Brasília and Goiânia on the BR-060 highway, it has always been a stopping-off point for travellers between the two cities.

History
Despite being a municipality since 1953 Abadiânia was only installed in its present site in the 1960s. The population was not happy with conditions of access and little by little they began to build their houses along the highway 18 kilometers away, where the present-day town is located.[4]
