The 45 best views in Sao Paulo

Largest park in the city, it has nice roads for running and walking along with bicycle lines. It has a lake with River with plenty of grass areas to just sit and relax. We enjoyed it in a sunny day on Sunday and lots of people go to exercise and work out. Lots of local people just enjoying with their families Park has plenty of small stores to get snacks, water and natural coconut water which is great, however did not see a larger restaurant to get meals, just mobile spots for quick grab and go. There are public bathroom but can get crowded Green areas and well maintained although they could be better, trees are mostly tropical. There is a museum, planetary and Japanese site but did not go to those.

I truly had a memorable day here, filled with joy and discovery. The blend of sport, leisure, and art offered a warm, inviting atmosphere that made me feel nice. Don't miss the Biennale; it's a cool experience. Take a leisurely jog among the locals and relax by sipping fresh coconut milk straight from its shell—simple moments that can bring so much joy.

We really enjoyed this park, went there for the visit one day and went back and walked almost around the entire loop. Love all the birds, ducks, Ingrids and other spices. We really enjoyed watching all the people get involved in different activities and plenty to do there for all ages, but I really loved looking at the fauna and the flora. The trees were incredible. I WOULD RECOMMEND

It’s an absolute pleasure to walk in this park but keep in mind it’s huge. Plenty of cafes and shops to buy a fresh coconut or any other drinks, lots of bench’s to sit and relax or just watch people performing different instruments in the nature. I saw a lot of families spending time here with kids or having a meal. Definetly worth walking around

Lovely park with varied green spaces, you can hire a bike or quad style bike with separated lanes. There are plenty of stands for snacks and the ever present coconut water. There is a japanese garden and a planetarium and art gallery all located inside the park. Loads to do you can easily spend a whole day here.

I have to say this is one of the best parks I've ever been to. From coconut water stands, to acai spots, and great running tracks. A great place for grounding in a concrete jungle.

Ona warm Sunday, the park is a giant playground for adults and kids alike. Crowded and friendly a great place to just hang out

Beco do Batman in Vila Madalena is a must-see if you like street art or just want to feel São Paulo’s creative pulse. It’s not big—just a few alleys—but every wall is alive with murals that change constantly. Some are loud and political, others just wild bursts of color. The art isn’t locked behind glass; it’s raw, textured, and right at your fingertips. It can get crowded, especially on weekends when photographers, tourists, and live painters all pack the space. But that’s part of the vibe—it feels more like a living, breathing gallery than a tourist stop. Go early in the morning if you want cleaner shots and fewer people. Good shoes help on the cobblestones.

I visited Beco do Batman last weekend with two co-workers, and it was such a memorable experience. The entire alley is alive with color, energy, and creativity—every wall is covered in incredible street art that feels more like an open-air gallery than just graffiti. We spent a lot of time wandering, taking photos, and just admiring the constantly changing artwork. The vibe was relaxed and welcoming, with locals and visitors mingling, and plenty of small cafés and bars nearby to grab a drink afterward. It’s also easy to explore on foot, and you’ll find new details around every corner. If you’re in São Paulo, I’d absolutely recommend adding Beco do Batman to your list. It’s not just sightseeing—it’s an experience that captures the city’s artistic spirit in such a fun way.

Beco do Batman is an incredible open-air gallery and one of São Paulo’s most vibrant attractions. The walls are covered with ever-changing street art, showcasing everything from bold graffiti to detailed murals, making every visit feel unique. It’s a fantastic place to walk around, take photos, and appreciate the creativity and talent of local and international artists. The neighborhood also has plenty of cool cafés and shops nearby, which adds to the experience. A must-see spot for anyone visiting São Paulo!

Cool area with lots of food stalls and interesting bars on the street. It gets very busy but definitely worth a visit and sit outside to watch the world go by.

A definite must-visit in Sao. The street art is absolutely amazing and there are a few bars where ypu cna chill and relax. Make sure you visit early in the morning as it can get crowded later during the day.

Cool experience. Funky art and great locals. Had some good food (burger and skewers) and Gelato.

Nice artistic neighborhood to walk around and have some drinks. Is just a few block but you can see some street art

Food was good, but not the best I had. Lovely atmosphere and great views, a really romantic place to spend an evening at. Great service too, apart from a server taking away my unfinished cocktail without asking 🤷‍♀️to add, we went to the bar afterwards and the service went down significantly, no one took our order, no server once looked at our table, we asked one server if he could take a photo of us and he couldn't find 5 seconds to do so... Completely opposite service than in the restaurant. The entertainment were great in both. Piano playing and singing in the bar.

Not Impressed with the food or atmosphere. We asked for a window seat and didn’t get one instead we get sat next children 🤦‍♂️. You can get much more for your money in Sp elsewhere. Trust me.

Only went to the bar. Excellent Old Fashioned. Great view over Saõ Paulo.

A wonderful dining experience with great food and ambiance, excellent service, attentive staff, and a beautiful view of the city. It is a truly great gastronomic experience And I would highly recommend...

Likely the most refined space in São Paulo. Food is perfect! Changes for dietary restrictions perfect! A waiter is responsible for all orders and follow-ups. It was my daughter's birthday and the panoramic view was stunning! We loved folks properly dressed for that space.

Lobster 🦞 Tagliatelle 🍝 Filet mignon 🥩 was amazing. I'll definitely recommend for.family and friends, can't wait to come back in my next trip to Brazil 🔥🔥🔥

A must-visit cultural hub in São Paulo’s historic center! This beautifully restored landmark blends art, history, and stunning city views from its observation deck. Exhibits are engaging, though some floors feel underutilized. The rooftop bar is perfect for sunset drinks. A bit pricey, but worth it for the experience. ⭐⭐⭐⭐✨

I wouldn’t say this is a must-see in São Paulo unless you’re really out of things to do. The observation deck is on the 26th floor of the Farol Santander building, and while it offers a 360° view, it’s fully enclosed with glass panels, which makes taking good photos pretty tricky. We went around 4 PM, and the view just wasn’t that impressive — at that height, you don’t get a great cityscape or skyline feel. For a city this big, I expected something a bit more striking.

Farol Santander was a great surprise on our trip. The viewpoints from the 26th floor were really nice. The art exhibits were well done and engaging. I wish there was more English on the history exhibits on the lower floors - speaking no Portuguese we waltzed right through them. Overall I highly recommend this very eclectic experience.

Farol Santander in São Paulo is an incredible mix of history, culture, and breathtaking views. Housed in a beautifully restored Art Deco skyscraper, this iconic building offers something for everyone. The exhibitions inside are diverse, ranging from contemporary art to the history of São Paulo, and they’re always well-curated and engaging. One of the highlights is the observation deck on the top floor, where you get stunning panoramic views of the city—perfect for photos! There’s also a charming café where you can relax while soaking in the atmosphere. Whether you're into art, architecture, or just exploring unique places, Farol Santander is a must-visit.

Great views with some really cool experiences to look at along the way down. Very affordable, very clean and very well guided. We didn’t have a wait, everything felt very safe and easy to get to. The place has different exhibits as you go down each level from the top, which I heard change every so often.

Great place to visit with temporary exhibitions as well as an exhibition about the building itself.

Wow, this lighthouse that served as the HQ of the Saō Paulo bank now is an incredible place to visit. With multiple floors that host a bar and restaurant at the top, observation deck, a skate park, art and museum exhibitions, and a historical museum showcasing the former offices housed in the building. One of the coolest places is the bar underground in the former vault. One can easily buy tickets in the gorgeous lobby and take the elevator the top.

Great view from the roof top. You don't need to book ,but you need to book on line when you arrive. I had trouble with this as it would not accept my phone log in as from a foreign country. Staff was so helpful with this and put us in front of the queue.

Fantastic view from the top. If you have a toddler, visit floor 3 as there is a great play area. Our little guy burnt off a heap of energy here!

Nice rooftop where you can view the city and the rockets are for free. You just ask for tickets by the entrance and they help you. Nobody speaks English as usual. There are cafes you can grab a coffee and overlook the city.

A good place to take pictures of Paulista area. A lot of facilities for the community.

Man, I love this place. Must visit for everyone in São Paulo. This is a place maintained by companies in Brasil to help their employees chill and enjoy activities and learn new things at a reasonable or free of cost. To enjoy most activities you need to be a member but I think to visit the place you don't need one. Also, must go to the 17 floor, you will know why. Avoid weekends, it can get too crowded.

I came here on my first morning in São Paulo straight from the airport as I could not check-in at my hotel yet. They were so nice and accommodating to let me in even with my big bags. Probably they understood that I was a tourist. So I hang out at the rooftop cafe for a few hours while waiting for my check-in time. The view was great. It gives you the view of the south end of Avenida Paulista and you’d realize what a massive concrete jungle São Paulo really is. And it’s great for taking pictures. The cafe did not much variety on its menu but the prices are surprisingly reasonable. And unlike most of the rooftop/viewpoint restaurants and cafes in São Paulo that charges a fee just to get in and have expensive menu, this one was free to get in.

System there has changed. No longer we can enter 17th floor without reservation ;( for 16th floor, you don't need to reserve a table. Just go to 16th floor and order foods and drinks and take a seat. You can still see nice view from the 16th floor but not as nice as before when it didn't require us to make a reservation in advance but could go up to 17th. However, foods and drinks are very nice there. And price is super fair. Much cheaper than any other cafeterias in Paulista.

Definitely worth paying R30 for this museum as it has so many exhibitions and they were all amazing! The exhibitions were also in English and made it so much easier for us to enjoy! The ticket also includes the contemporary art in another building. We ended up spending over 2 hours here but could’ve easily spend half a day here. Highly recommend this to everyone!

I enjoyed this art museum. It has a nice mix of old art and contemporary art. The only artist I actually knew about before visiting is a Rodin statue. But it was fun to learn more about Brazilian artists. I was hoping to visit some other art museums but all the other museums were closed on Monday...But the Pinacoteca was open! They get an extra star just for being open on the day I was in town. The gardens around the museum are beautiful and peaceful. But the restaurant had a long line so I did not get to eat there.

I loved this gallery. The exhibits are diverse, well curated, and educational for those new to Brazilian artists. There’s a cafe and shop worthy of stops, too. Highly recommend!

Amaizing! The place is huge, recomend to spend several hours admiring all the art pieces. Very close to metro station, wakable distance

My favourite art museum in Sao Paulo! It's huge as well, reserve at least 2 hours to visit. The expositions change constantly, so it's always worth it to visit.

Excellent collection. Very complete and is worth spending the time to visit every corner.

Amazing gallery. Really enjoyed how it provides a platform for Brazilian art. Also a very cool historical space. Tourists beware: the surrounding areas are not the safest, keep your phones and wallets safe.

Great museum about all aspects of the sport, in all its varieties and historical significances. I think it's worth the visit even for people who don't particularly like the sport in itself. The museum explains the particular Brazilian culture of the football in the bairros. Women's football is also talked about a lot. At the end of the museum, you can make some attempts to score goals yourself. The store on the side is also very varied!

A really good football museum, but be aware that a lot of things aren't translated into English. It's also sustainable for kids so if you have a family you can have for sure a nice interactive experience. I gave 4/5 stars because the museum don't offer english translation and it could be crowded of children. But it's still really interesting and a really good set up.

The museum is an interesting place to visit for a few hours. There’s not much written in English, but you can download an audio guide using their free WiFi. Clearly it was great to learn how football was brought to the country by an English man! The exhibits are well constructed and informative. We also got lucky and watched a little football in the stadium that the museum sits in.

I went there twice, and both times I was not disappointed. When I went with my father he was really happy to have gone. Lots of things to see, the evolution of the game, the cleats, the ball, history of all of the clubs in Brazil. Cool activities to try. Plus you can purchase any jersey of any team you like and personalize the jersey. Fun thing to remember the visit.

Great place to visit if you like football & would like to learn about the history of the sport in Brazil. The museum has interactive games, videos & clips of fantastic moments of football. It’s worth a visit.

It is an interesting museum about Brazilian football and worth visiting if you are a football fan.

The museum’s interactive exhibits bring the beautiful game to life, showcasing Brazil’s rich football legacy through historic photographs, videos, and memorabilia. Highlights include sections dedicated to legendary players like Pelé, Garrincha, and Zico, as well as emotional moments like World Cup victories. The interactive displays, such as recreating the sounds of a stadium crowd, make the experience truly immersive. It’s not just about football—it also explores its impact on Brazilian culture, identity, and society. Whether you’re a football fan or just curious about Brazil’s greatest passion, the Museu do Futebol is a must-visit when in São Paulo.

The long, Brutalist structure looms over Paulista Avenue, its weighty monumental form seemingly suspended on flaming-red concrete piers. More than just architecture, it’s an urban sculpture—bold, functional, and commanding. Beneath its vast undercroft, a public plaza unfolds, a space carved from the very air it hovers over. The top floor houses the museum’s permanent collection—where space and display become their own form of functional art. Hundreds of paintings—modern, avant-garde, contemporary, and classical—seem to float on crystal easels, creating an eerie, almost transcendental effect. This unconventional display allows viewers to see both the front and back of each piece, transforming them from static, two-dimensional works into dynamic, almost sculptural objects. It’s an experience that feels refreshingly out of the box. This museum is idiosyncratic and breathtaking at the same time. Highly recommended.

This might be the most exciting fine art museum I’ve ever seen — and not because of its extraordinary collection, but because of how the artworks are presented. Take a moment to read about why the architect chose to display them this way — it’s truly unique, and the experience stays with you long after you leave.

Third time here, always a great experience. Tons of art from different time periods and cool exhibitions, and I love how the permanent collection in the “original” museum on the top floor is staged in clear boxes. Worth going every day but especially when free on Tuesdays!!!

A great museum to visit in Sao Paulo. If you just have time only for one museum this should be the one. A stunning architectural structure by the modernist Italian born Brazilian architect Lina Bo Bardi finished in 1968. In the first and second floor the paintings are just hold by a very clever glass structure which makes them look like they are swing from above. The glass structure gives you also to see the back of the painting and enjoy the piece of art from every side. A very unique display and I must say the best way you can present paintings. A beautiful must see museum of Art which accommodates Picasso, Mattisse, Monet, El Greco, Velasquez, Rubens, Tintoretto, Max Ernst and many more.

It's nice museum and worth visiting, only I think they could put little bit more things there.

Perhaps the most iconic building of São Paulo, Lina Bo Bardi’s MASP was a total shock when it was constructed in the 1960’s. The unparalleled design mixes a suspended main body which frees up space for a public plaza which serves as well as the roof for two more floors that opens to the opposite side of Avenida Paulista. The iconic open space of the second floor’s gallery once again holds the Works of art in glass and concrete bases.

It's huge! A well done museum. They have a permanent exhibit upstairs and some seasonal exhibits on other floors. When I was there, the temporary exhibits were amazing wooden sculptures and Monet. 💸Buy your tickets ahead of time. Somehow we got in for free on a Friday night, but wr aren't sure if it was a special day or a menu option, so check around the ordering website.

A breathtaking architectural masterpiece and cultural icon! The Teatro Municipal dazzles with its opulent interiors, world-class acoustics, and stellar performances—from opera to ballet. Guided tours are insightful, but book early. Located in the heart of the city, it’s a must-visit for art and history lovers. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Orquestra Sinfônica Municipal and Coral Municipal presents a Concert to remember the 80 years from the final of WWII. It was the Concert for the Peace.

National Treasure, Global Architectural Culture Marvel, house of time stopping music and art, it is a privilege that it still exists and to get to attend it, a time capsule. A transportation device. A beacon of inspiration.

I had the opportunity to return to the São Paulo Municipal Theater after more than 10 years. The theater is beautiful and definitely worth a visit.

The surrounding requires cleaning as there are loads of street dwellers leaving human waste everywhere.

What an honor to see that! People were extremely wonderful and could speak English. There is NO entrance fee. They set you up with a guide for an hour in English. Absolutely crazy wonderful!! I learned SO much about Brazil! Thank you!

I was definitely underdressed. Haha. I came for a performance for a mere 35 real (which I just found online) and had a great treat during my visit. Even just entering the building was already a delight.

My apologies to the artists, but most of this art is some of the lamest I've ever seen. Fluorescent light tubes on the ground, letters, circles, and scribbles. I've seen better art created by 3 year olds. Sure the eye of the beholder but my eyes were shut forcibly as every exhibit put me to sleep. Zzzzz. The only saving grace is the building itself.

An interesting cultural center close to where we were staying in SP. Great yet small current exhibit, plus a wonderful restaurant in the middle of the hall.

Interesting building, worth getting close to appreciate the architecture. The exhibition was a bit sad, though. Small and repetitive.

I went to the Tomie Ohtake Institute today and it was great fun, there were a few interesting art displays to look at. There is also a great restaurant/Cafe on the lower level with plenty of good food. There are also some great places across the road to eat. Entry was free

Modern art museum with temporary exhibitions. Quiet, clean, not crowded.

We recently visited the Murakami exhibit and had lunch at Santinho, the restaurant in the institute. Both were well worth the visit. The exhibit featured a nice selection of recent work from Murakami. Most of the work shown here is part of a series that Murakami has developed since the tragic 2011 earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan’s pacific coast. They differ in subject matter from the artists earlier work, but they feature similar graphic treatments and exquisite attention to details. We really enjoyed it. Our lunch at Santinho was also delicious. They serve an awesome buffet with a mix of traditional Brazilian comfort food, with new creations using common Brazilian ingredients. The buffet includes salads, main course and even desert foods. There are a lot of options for vegetarians and meat eaters alike.

I went to an art exhibition and the place looked adequate for the occasion. There was a catering team serving drinks and appetizers so I guess it has a good infrastructure to hold these kind of events.

I'm not sure what's particularly special about this place, but it's a decent spot to visit. Nothing extraordinary, but worth checking out if you're nearby.

The craftsmanship of these old mansions is something I enjoy seeing. If you’re into that, check it out.

The place is interesting and well restored. It would be more interesting to have some period furnishings to get a sense of life in the original home.

Lovely free museum, a private villa on the prestige avenue of the city, turned into a museum. A must see, to get a glimpse of what Sao Paulo comes from, it's history.

There weren’t many roses in bloom while we were there because it was winter. But it was still a beautiful place to take a nice quiet stroll in the middle of downtown. There is a secluded little restaurant in that back that was very cute.

Beautiful garden in the middle of São Paulo! It's part of a social project to improve green spaces in urban areas

Beautiful flower garden and building.

Maybe you need a tour guide or to be part of a party/event to enter, but I tried visiting the terrace/rooftop on Wed, January 22nd, and was told by one of the females at the desk (entrance across from "help, loja de credito" that they don't have one. /:

The building is beautiful, a historic one. But it should be in a better condition. The history of the constructor is very interesting. He was a visionary. Nowadays 70% belong to the municipality, and the rest is occupied by businesses. Considering that Tokio Marine, an important insurance company, is responsible for the highest floors- 25+26- and now for quite a long time, it would be expected these floors would be in a better condition. But since it’s one of the most emblematic buildings in São Paulo, it has a great history, it is worth being visited.

A Stunning view in a beautifull place but the service is medíocre even for a free entrance.

A lot of history,:: really good view ... free entrance but u might have to wait on the queue 40min in advance if you wanna get in only 15ppl per time ... staff speaks a” bit” of English !

Stunning view of the concrete jungle! A must do! Check the time of the tours...

The building is beautiful and the views are pretty great. But the organization of this is dreadful. I came today (Sunday), saw that the timings were for 13 and 1430- on the site and on a poster on the door. I came just before 1300, with about 12 people ahead of me. A couple people joined friends near the front some time after I did, but we were not taken as a group until 1400. Then each of us had to show ID and the guide asked us questions and wrote our info- by hand, it took almost 15 minutes. Then we had to wait in another line for 15 minutes for no reason, and only then were we taken to the top. A guide spoke to us for a few minutes and then we were led out to the terrace. There were metal barriers in front of the rails so it was harder to get a really good view. Which I found pointless as there were only 15 of us and a guide and 3 guards. Not only that but only maybe half of the terrace was open for viewing. We were only allowed about 5 minutes on each side of the terrace. I've been to many lookouts in several parts of the globe and I've never had such a frustrating experience. I would prefer to pay an entrance fee and have more tours, waiting for an hour for a limited experience was almost not worth it.

It used to be better, without the railings and with less hassle, but it’s still one of São Paulo’s best views, and even better that the view from the neighboring Farol Santander. Also, it’s free! I recommend that you reserve your tickets beforehand online.

A super cool peek into Japanese history, contemporary culture, and the relationship with Brazil. The highlight for me was being offered and walked through a Japanese whiskey tasting. Will try the restaurant next time as well, as every dish we saw others with looked delicious.

Free access to public on any day, any time. Very clean bathrooms. A nice introduction to Japanese culture. A cafe and restaurant available inside!

Stopped by Japan House a few times while staying nearby — awesome spot! Super cool exhibits, beautiful design, and it’s totally free to visit. Great place to take a break, grab a coffee, and enjoy some art and culture.”

A very nice visit for both tourists and locals, and specially for architects and followers of Japanese culture in general. You get to see building models, art exhibitions, books for reference and more, everything shown alongside its historical or cultural context as an effort to educate about this country and its virtues.

Japan House Sao Paulo is a delightful blend of traditional and contemporary Japanese culture, perfect for curious travelers. 🌸 The exhibits are well curated, showcasing art, technology, and cuisine. Many unique items here, good for visiting! 👍 The architectural design of the building is stunning and offers a serene ambiance, making it a perfect escape from the bustling city. 🏯 The staff are friendly and informative, enhancing the overall experience. Don’t miss the gift shop, which is full of authentic Japanese goods and souvenirs. 🎁 A must visit spot for anyone interested in Japan!

Nice place to visit and take a coffee with some tasty cake. Beautiful library where you can look at an interesting book while having a good coffee. Little store to buy japanese crafts and whiskys (great options that are not often found in regular liquor stores). The second floor has a restaurante an little exhibition hall, where was a tea ceremony show when I visited.

Expected more like samurai and ninja armor and beautiful cherry blossoms. For free you can't complain on a Tuesday. It's good if you're having a stroll on the avenue and want to see it for a half hour. Not a must see by any means in SP but a good little stop for a little walk.

A park known for the spectacular sunsets with lots of open sky and view. Sometimes there are small festivals with food trucks parked nearby. Helpful tip: bring a jacket as it can get quite windy and cold here. But there is plenty of space in this park to watch the sunset.

During sunset it’s reeeeeally pretty here! Also very safe, as there is a security guard.

Very beautiful place that we ended up by some friends parents that was showing us around the city on the way to the Porto Bay Hotel. Really enjoyed the sunset and relaxed atmosphere Square Sunset provided.

The most amazing sunsets in the city are here! I like to come here, despite the fact that there are a lot of people. Ideal for your photo shoot!The most amazing sunsets in the city are here! I like to come here, despite the fact that there are a lot of people. Ideal for your photo shoot!

Amazing place with beautiful view of the city. Better to bring a blanket to sit on the grass.

If you like sunsets don't go there. It's super noisy and people don't respect the place leaving garbage behind. I thought I would have a good time there and couldn't really rest.

I think the pictures say it all. Popular place for a beautiful sunset.

You can’t know if it is open or not. We arrived mid day travelling from the city center. We checked there instagram, google and website and all said they would be open today but when we arrived it was closed due to a wedding. Extremely unprofessional and surprising that they didn’t manage to communicate this anywhere.

All the staff members are very helpful and friendly! Nice brunch.

Beautiful garden, with gorgeous modern house, and delicious afternoon tea inside.

To celebrate a birthday of my husband we booked in advance the tea room for 26 adults ! We were very disappointed with what we remembered a few years ago of the service that the dar call the English Tea party ! The service was terrible , at 3 o’clock without announcing anything they put on a sideboard , 3 tea pots . No one knew if you had help yourself or somebody was coming to serve you . Some saw the tea pots and went to help themselves ; what was the tea pots was water for tea but cold , Coffee also cold and Hot chocolate , that was also cold …,,The service was poor because there was One waiter for our event who had also to take care of the guests that were seated on the other tables who were not our guests ….! It was a mess!!!! At the end of the two hours that was supposed to last the party the started serving the English pastry , that was the only thing that reminded us of the English Tea that they used to serve 25 years ago ! And they brought the sweets just when the people were leaving ……..What a disappointment for us and for the guests !!

Fantastic place inside of São Paulo. The brunch is expensive, but it’s worth every cent. The place was the former house of an entrepreneur, converted in a brunch place, art gallery and park. It’s nice to take a walk, eat, take another walk, eat again (repeat). You can park your ride inside the park, no need to worry about that.

The architectonic relevant house transformed in museum with some beautiful peaces, with one downside, you cant take pictures inside the house. There's a really cozy cafe and a surprising park really worth visiting, and on selected Sundays they concerts. I recommend.

Beautiful building and garden, but the brunch could be better. The breads could be fresher and better quality. It is missing more care with the food. People that goes there in general appreciate good food. As we are in São Paulo, and have very good suppliers from good and special food. It should be explored more for a so beautiful place.

Apparently the hotel is under renovation. I was very disappointed in the standard of service for a five star hotel. Perhaps because I came for a conference at a different room rate and I did not upgrade to club status I am getting subpar service. My room was not cleaned until after 2pm and then they took my soiled towels, but did not replace them. In addition, my credit card number changed between when I reserved in January and when my meeting was happening in May. So a week before, while I was traveling elsewhere they threatened to cancel my reservation and wanted me to email them my credit card number. I was uncomfortable with that and instead updated the payment method in the World of Hyatt app. However, the app did not let me enter my security code. So the payment was declined. Sitting in a barebones lodge in Amazonia I had to made several calls and exchange emails (no What’s app) to get the item resolved, delaying me from other activities. I am tired and grumpy and the staff have been cheerful and polite, but the service does NOT compare to other five star hotels in Brazil. The night before I stayed at the Unique and they gave me treats and turn down service. No such thing here at the Grand Hyatt. Definitely a three star experience.

We had a wonderful stay at the Grand Hyatt São Paulo! We originally booked a standard room, but to our surprise, we were upgraded to a beautiful suite with an amazing view from the window — truly a highlight of our stay! The service throughout the hotel was excellent, and we felt safe and well taken care of the entire time. The staff were kind and welcoming, always ready to help with a smile. The only small downside was that the elevators were a bit slow, but that’s a minor thing compared to everything else. I’d especially like to thank the team at the Club Lounge on the 20th floor — such a great space to relax and enjoy the view. A special shoutout to the waitress with the braid — she was extremely professional, warm, and attentive. Her service really stood out! The only thing to keep in mind is that the hotel is a bit far from the main international airport, but if that’s not an issue for you, I highly recommend staying here.

Overall for the value of points with Hyatt, it was a good stay. The rooms are a bit dated but I did appreciate the birthday cake for the week long birthday celebration. The lounge access bar and menu were solid. Highlights included the fresh and made to order omelets for breakfast and the delicious passion fruit Caipirinha. Location is okay but definitely in terms of tourist attractions, would not recommend because the traffic is horrible.

The rooms and its amineties, specially the soaps are very good. Both room n bathroom are huge and spacious. Water follow was fast. Cleanliness was very good of housekeeping. Drinking water was available in the room. Staff at the bar, reception n even the room service staff was excellent. Taxi was available very fast or on call. Food was tasty, though we just had the breakfast in in-room dinning. Gym is huge n so is the swimming pool. The view on the river side has a river view along with a bridge view. Reception, helpdesk and room service would understand English. But there was only one draw back, that they had only 1 Italian restaurant. They had no coffee shop for 24 hours n so if u want some regular or simple food like bread, rice, curd, fruit platter, etc, then that they would not be able to serve u in the restaurant. U will need to order only for the room for that n if u have checked out then u cannot get any desired food.

The Hyatt is by far my favourite hotel in Sao Paulo, especially for business travels. Everyone (arrival, lobby, lounge, spa, restaurant etc.) is super kind and helpful at all times and made me feel at home very far away from home. Loved the lounge, the rooms are the best I've seen in comparison to other 5star hotels in SP, gym is top, great pool and sauna.. does not lack anything. Only the location is perhaps not the greatest when visiting for tourism purposes as it is a bit off from the buzz but for me it was always fine with Uber etc. And room service didn't wow me, so mostly opted for the lounge. In sum, the Hyatt will always be my first choice in Sao Paulo!

The hotel is in a nice location in the new financial district of the city. Check in was smooth and the room was pretty nice. The main reason for my 3 stars is the breakfast service and food. Food is standard fare that you would find at any standard Marriott, Hilton or Hyatt hotels in the US. The miost uoseting thing is my omelette order that I placed with the waiter came in 20 minutes later even though I was the 2nd person to come for breakfast. I asked for only veggies in my omelette but my order came with ham. So I had to wait another 15 minutes for the correct omelette. This one experience really stained my experience and I am staying here only for 2 nights. Sia was ok - for some reason, the swedish massage really didn't do it for me even though the masseur was nice and provided the right amount of pressure.

$300 was stolen from my wallet by a hotel housekeeper on Sep 15th 2025. I had $500 in my wallet that was in my suitcase. This person replaced three 100 dollar bills with three 1dollar bills. Also this person stole a bunch of my snacks and candies that were on the desk lol. Never leave your suitcase open&unlocked if you ever have to stay in this hotel!!!

We are American's that received terrible service and hospitality. It ruined our wedding anniversary. Reception manager was arrogant and rude. So bad we went home. We are two Americans living in Brazil and were excited to spend our wedding anniversary at what seemed like a very nice hotel. Unfortunately, the experience was nothing short of disappointing. Prior to our stay, we received a phone call and an email to arrange our stay, but neither one mentioned that we would need to bring our government identification to check in. When we arrived, my husband had his, but I didn't have mine. We have been living back and forth in the States and Brazil for years, and I have always been able to check in other hotels with a picture of my ID. I don't carry my physical identification unless I know I need it because, unfortunately, in Brazil there is a high chance of getting robbed. When we tried to check in the manager at the front desk told us that there had been an email sent informing us of the requirement to bring a physical ID and that there was a law and they couldn’t check us in without it. As foreigners living in Brazil, we were unaware of this law, and we were never informed of anything in their prior communication. My husband had to drive all the way back home to get the documents, enduring heavy traffic, which caused us to lose a significant amount of time (multiple hours). By the time he returned, we realized that staying the night had become pointless, given how much of our evening had been wasted. To make matters worse, the entire interaction with the reception manager (from start to finish) showed no empathy or willingness to make any accommodations. The biggest problem was his attitude that was condescending, cold and dismissive throughout, which left us feeling completely uncared for. When I presented the email that we received from the hotel THERE WAS NO INFORMATION ABOUT BRINGING IDENTIFICATION. I showed it to the manager and, he said, correct, there is nothing about identification here, but it’s the law and there is nothing I can do. He then smiled and quickly walked away and into a room and didn’t come back out. I understand that there is a rule, but the main point of complaint was how rude, cold and dismissive the manager was. We are foreigners and have no way of knowing this law. The manager acted like he didn’t care one bit that our night had been ruined. I told him that I would like to send a formal complaint about how everything was handled to his manager. He told me that I could send the complaint email to HIM, and that HE would forward it to his managers. That is Ridiculous. For a hotel that charges premium prices, you’d expect premium hospitality. Instead, we received service far worse than what you'd get at a Marriott or Hilton. Ultimately, by that time it was 10PM or 22 hrs, we decided not to stay the night and returned home, resulting in a ruined wedding anniversary. This experience left a sour taste, and we would not recommend this hotel to anyone looking for quality service and care. If you are American traveling and considering this hotel, don’t be deceived by the pretty pictures, you will have better luck in a hotel chain that has been vetted by the USA like the Hilton or Marriott.

Palácio Tangará is our absolute favourite hotel in São Paulo. The staff are always so kind and welcoming - they truly make you feel right at home from the moment you arrive. The service, the atmosphere, everything is just flawless. No faults at all. I honestly can’t wait to go back!

Luxurious hotel super well decorated and designed. Brunch is out of this world but lunch and dinner nothing special. Rooms are lovely, spacious and clean. Spa is also very well done! You’re in for a treat if you spend on sleeping there!

Truly an oasis amidst the concrete jungle. We had the pleasure of staying at Palácio Tangará on three different occasions during our vacation, and I can confidently say it lives up to its name and grandeur in the heart of Panamby. The service was flawless—whether at the front desk, room service, poolside bar, or spa—every detail was handled with care and attention. We will definitely be returning. Thank you, Tangará team!

Stunning hotel, tucked away in the midst of a city park. Well appointed and spacious rooms, clean and classy with amazing facilities. The Restaurant Jean Gorges has Michelin quality food with a wonderful sommelier - be warned, it’s not open Sunday, Monday or Tuesday. The main restaurant and pool bar are open everyday and also do great food and the terrace provides a beautiful setting for lunch and dinner.

Will be back , it was a weekend retreat. Love the property and the amenities. I would come back and try the Spa and pool . Love the vibe ❤️‍🔥

We just stayed two fantastic days and nights at the Palacio Tangará. The experience was simply superb! The service experience impressed and the staff was very friendly, attentive, engaging and eager to please. They went out of their ways to make sure we enjoyed every minute of it. We used many od their services from the Spa (both days) to outside and inside bar and dined both nights at their Michelin Start Restaurant, which did not disappoint us. Thank you all for making us feel special! We will be back!

Definitely a huge street. Lots of big buildings (good for cool street pictures). Modern stores and restaurants here.

Paulista: The Heartbeat of São Paulo The most famous avenue in São Paulo vibrant, lively, and full of energy all day long. It’s lined with offices, cafés, museums, and street performers. Landmarks like MASP, Japan House, and Casa das Rosas are must-sees. On Sundays, the avenue closes to traffic and turns into a street festival of music, dance, and art. Even on weekdays, it never loses its rhythm. Between the tall buildings, you’ll also notice people living in tents a quiet reminder of the city’s social contrasts. Take a day to walk, listen, and observe. To understand São Paulo, start with Paulista. 🌿#PaulistaAvenue #SãoPaulo #TravelBrazil

Nice place to go and walk, shop or find a place to ir in São Paulo

A place of social live, specially on Sundays, then closed for cars and full of people. See and be taken notice off. No doubt on days with events. But here every Sunday or even every day is day of events. Don't miss MASP and Parque Trianon.

Alive and busy street with lot of high end shops

Super excellent walk it reminds me of the magnificent mile our Michigan Avenue in Chicago a little bit not full on just you know their variation of it here

One of São Paulo's most iconic and bustling streets, lined with impressive skyscrapers that house major banks, corporations, shops, and shopping centers. It is also home to MASP, the renowned Museum of Art with its distinctive architecture. On Sundays, the street comes alive with markets and countless stalls selling a variety of goods. Always lively and full of energy, this is a must-visit destination!

This is an amazing park! Free entry with lots of great food vendors/trucks (I love the pamonha!), and a full library with a cafe. They have basketball, tennis, volleyball, and soccer courts, a playground, and an outer and inner path for running (the outer path is around 2 miles), walking, biking, etc. There are bycicles, skates, and 2 person bikes for rent at the front of the park as well. Visiting to this park is always a joyful experience. Whether you're there to get in a workout or spend time with your family, there is so much to experience!

Have space for both families and adults. Have plenty of playgrounds as well as sports areas including basketball court, exercise areas and so on. Bathrooms are lacking soap (the time I’ve visited) but overall pretty fun place to be.

I recently visited Parque Villa-Lobos in São Paulo on a rainy Sunday morning for my long run, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! This park is an absolute gem for runners and bikers alike. The 3.5 km / 2.2 mi loop provided the perfect track for my run, with scenic views and well-maintained paths. What's more, the availability of restrooms and a filtered water station made my experience even more convenient. And to top it off, vendors selling fresh coconut water were a delightful treat post-run. Rain or shine, Parque Villa-Lobos is the ideal destination for outdoor enthusiasts. Five stars without a doubt!

Although the organizers underestimated the buzz and amount of people who were really interested on going to the WTA SP OPEN, which made it impossible for us, real WTA tennis fans, to buy all the tickets we wanted as everything was instantly sold, unfortunately, to scalpers, who clearly didn't even passed on all their tickets.... Even so, everything else worked fine, we could see that the organizers really tried to do the best they could for the players and spectators. We had a lot of fun and it was a really great experience seeing our Brazilian tennis idols and other professional players so close! The only thing that got me sad was that we didn't get to see Luiza's game because the court didn't have numbered chairs and it was too crowded!

A beautiful, big, dynamic park with tons of things to do and to walk around. There were lots of people jogging, training, taking selfies, biking around, having a delicious coconut, etc. There’s also the biggest wheel in Latin America apparently, or one of the biggest ones. And I also saw a super vintage and cute merry-go-round. The park is pet friendly, and families can enjoy picnics, small gatherings and much more!

It is 5 if you enjoy different activities with the family. Free entrance and lots of washrooms and benches. In terms of nice pictures and selfies they can Improve on that as they have a huge land. Lots of restaurants. Can rent a bike. Mostly a park to be active and exercise.

Good place and there is a big wheel and the cost is around $70 R per person. The audio didn’t work well. The park is big but is a little insecure.

A very nice place with a lot of really beautiful plants and some interesting background information in form of a small museum. Perfect for a relaxed afternoon stroll. Takes about 2 hours to see the whole garden.

Nice garden to spend a couple of hours in the morning in June. Was hoping for more plants and descriptions but overall still good value if you are into botany. Found out late. Shuttle to zoo only for those that buy combo tickets. Also hard to find anyone that speaks even little English including ticket agent.

If you don't own a car, but you want to connect con nature. This is agreat place to go. It is a botanical garden located in a rest of Mata Atlantica forest. You may go by Uber or even by public transport.

Absolutely beautiful oasis of peacefulness. The garden is very well maintained. Some areas are kept wild like the trail at the end of the garden, which adds to the atmosphere. There you can enjoy a piece of the Atlantic rainforest right in the heart of the city. Another great thing about this garden is that you can spot some wildlife, including monkeys and even toucans. Although rare, it took me three attempts to be able to see one, they can be spotted in the garden. I would recommend coming right when the garden opens and to look for fruiting palm trees. They generally mingle there.

Lush and grand. It was quiet with not many people on Friday afternoon. I could pay with credit card at the entrance. The light hit the pond just right. The bamboo forest was very shaded and cooling.

A beautiful place to walk and decompress from the business of life. 😊

My new favorite oasis. Escape from the hustle and bustle on the city

A stylish spot for a drink with a view This place is perfect for enjoying a well-made drink in a visually stunning setting. The decor is absolutely gorgeous, with attention to detail that makes it feel upscale and unique. When I visited, the music was fantastic - great vibe without being overpowering - and the view really is something special. It’s definitely on the pricier side, and it gets very busy on Friday and Saturday nights, so expect a crowd if you're heading there during peak hours. Overall, a classy and lively venue that’s well worth a visit if you're looking to impress or unwind in style.

Nice rooftop to see the whole city of Sao Paulo. Red lights are impossible for pictures but the location is nice. Bring your flash for selfies and pictures.

Skye is easily one of the best dining experiences in São Paulo. The rooftop setting is absolutely stunning — the views alone make it worth a visit! I was especially impressed by the variety of vegetarian options on the menu, each dish full of flavor and beautifully presented. The service was outstanding — attentive, friendly, and professional throughout. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a perfect blend of ambiance, great food, and top-tier service.

Amazing atmosphere! Clean, great quality. Beautiful views!

Excellent time on New Years Eve. Excellent Service excellent food and drink. This place is always a good time and I especially had a very nice time here on New Year’s Eve this year. I highly recommend this place on any night of the week or even the daytime The vegan meatball pasta is one of my new favorites here

Went there for a morning coffee and to relax a bit and oh my my what an amazing hotel and rooftop bar/restaurant. The views are amazing and the staff is wonderful. The coffee tasted extra good while taking in the atmosphere and views. Going again at 6 for sunset views and dj music at 8 :)

Came on a Sunday night on a spur of the moment decision. We had our 8 month old baby with us and they were so accommodating and sweet, especially with the baby. I was on a tee shirt and jeans so I asked valet if I was dressed okay. They were so sweet about it and made me feel welcomed. It was a quick dinner. Great view We really liked the salmon and tuna Japanese dishes.

I had the best time hiking in this park. The small paths in the jungle were filled with interesting plants, fungi, and caterpillars of all colors and sizes. Watch out for the green one - it is venomous. We spent 4 hours exploring the park, and I enjoyed every second. We didn't see any animals, such as monkeys or coatis, but it was still worth going. There is a small cafe on the viewpoint, where you can buy a snack or coffee. I wouldn't recommend, as the cappuccino was cold and they didn't even mix the powder with water properly and served it with clumps, although we were the only customers :) The park is huge, and there's barely anyone (we visited on a weekday), so you can enjoy nature and walk through the park at your own pace.

A trail that every time you go, you always end up with a new surprise. Park team well oriented in relation to the prevention of covid at the entrance of the part. For those who want to disconnect a little from the world, I recommend the view on the stone and it is sensational!

Take a casual and brisk walk into the woods! If you want to escape the city’s noise and pollution, immerse yourself in the fresh air and silence.

Amazing experience walking up to Pedra Grande. If you are tired there’s a transportation shuttle to come down for 25 réais. I saw monkeys, butterflies, birds and more. Don’t go to Lago das carpas, it’s not worth it.

Really nice place, safe, clean, calm. You can see birds, insects, animals. It’s not so big so you have time to talk and take pictures, I think it take you 4h minimum to see perfectly the park ! Prepare some cash for the entry, student card, and some drink and food cause you don’t have inside but it’s better like that I guess ! I recommend !

A good choice to connect with nature. It is possible to walk along the main road and explore the side trails. Rock View is DMS!

The hiking route has nothing special and we had to walk on steep paths for around 1h BUT when we arrived the top we felt how worthy it was.... Splendid view of the whole Sao Paulo City and you feel the king of the world!!

I was absolutely blown away by this museum! I never imagined it was so amazing, with a huge and well curated collection and so much history. It is a place worth visiting, at least once. It is also very easy to park inside Ibirapuera Park, but you can also take Uber or public transportation. Worth a day off!

One of the best museums to learn about African history globally. I learnt many things about African history, culture, religions, art and their experience of getting enslaved and colonised. In particular this place deserves applause for promoting African art in brazil and highlighting the deep impact African culture has had on brazilian culture

Better than I expected . Actually significant prices and breadth of history. We'll curated. Definitely check it out while at the park.

Lots to see, the museum stretches onto three floors. Student discount available, even foreign students can show their national student IDs and get on rhe offer.

The museum showcases large, multidisciplinary art pieces, offering a vibrant and rich exploration of Afro-Brazilian culture. It’s a great place to visit and experience this colorful heritage—I truly enjoyed it.

Great place to learn more about Afro Brazilian culture. However, English explanations would have been nice.

A museum that tells of the rich history of Afro-Brazilians. A beautiful display of artwork and history

Super friendly staff. Superb view. Impeccable foods The chicharrones was the absolute standout. It was so crispy and the sauce perfect.

The view at this restaurant is not the only great feature. It also offers some good quality food with a great variety of dishes. Drinks were really good as well. This is a great alternative to the neighboring rooftop (Terraco Italia) which feels outdated. Contrary, this restaurant is casual and very welcoming.

View, atmosphere and food was amazing. Service was mostly excellent and general vibe was exquisite!

Overall ok. The view is good, but the restaurant itself is average. Service lacked attention and service staff seemed lost, not sure of what the dish of the day was, taking about 20min to bring water to the table, among other things. Food was good but the lack of description on the menu makes it incredibly hard for people with dietary restrictions (then once you ask the waiter that the dish is made of they seem to have no idea). Service fee of 13% instead of the regular 10% felt like a ripoff considering the service we got.

Great rooftop in Sao Paulo center serving french food made by a French chef. Come for the food and obviously the menu. All selections cane out nicely and in a timely manner. Service could be slightly more attentive but in all fairness it became very busy for a friday lunch.

Amazing food and friendly service who spoke english.

Wow!!!! Great restaurant. Best food I ate in Brazil. Great service. Good atmosphere. And not expensive as much as I thought. 79 pp for 3 courses. (Lunch time) Good for vegeterian.

FAKE Historic!! Don’t be fooled by these ignorant reviews, although the architecture brings our imagination back to early colonial Brazil, it is nothing, but a replica from the 1970s. The original edification was demolished in the 19th century as it wasn’t imposing enough to house the government.

Pretty and well maintained building with a beautiful garden. You can walk in free of charge.

Undoubtedly the most charming original Jesuit mission built in 1554 as Sao Paolo de Piratininga in the Planalto/tableland of Piratininga between rivers Tamanduatei & Anhangabau.Despite its turbulent past in the aftermath of Jesuit Order being expelled twice from Brasil: first in 1640 but restored in 1653 and once again expelled in 1759 by Marques de Pombal/ Portuguese Gov. but restored by Pope Clement XIV in 1773. As expected the building was neglected and its subsequent dereliction plus changes it suffered as it was used as Government quarters. Adjacent to this is Sao Bento with a charming small chapel to the left where the life of Jose de Anchieta is chartered as he and Padre Manuel da Nobrega are honoured as they built and negotiated their arrival with the local Tamoios indians. Make sure you visit Museum and crypt as the exhibits of maps/ designs, Paulistinhas images, reliquias and do not miss the interesting Kamayura & Waura exhibits of arches, masks, pottery, axes,jewellery and ornaments,etc from the Xingu National Park.

This place is an amazing history lesson of the city. The main attraction is the museum that shows a series of maps of São Paulo since its foundation, plus a great collection of sacred art from the beginnings of Brazil as a country. The restored church is also worth seeing - the interior looks quite stunning.

A lovely square. Some homeless people around but if you act naturally and confidently all is well. Daytime is better. There area also guided tours. Free walks is a very good one. The Italian free walk guide Rocco is really good.

An historic place about the history of Sao Paolo. Unfortunately this place being downtown is not safe to go to. Be very careful with the surroundings.

Great coffee and service. As a charity linked to the church though they could do better for the homeless population around. For example, if you are not visiting the museum, you have to pay to use the toilets. They should provide basic services for the homeless community.

High end and prestige vibe throughout the mall! Inside it’s nicely decor with lots of greens, and dotted with many higher end retails, Dior, LV, etc. Top floors are where the restaurants are and never run out of options! See the night view of the city across the river, rather impressive!

Great place with amazing high end stores for the mega rich amazing restaurants and lots of beautiful people

If you’re looking for a luxury shopping experience go here. It’s filled with some of the most notable luxury brands from LV, to Celine, and Prada… some of the best restaurants in the area and a rooftop view that’s to die for!

🌟👏🏻👏🏻 How I miss São Paulo!! This shoping definitely has to be in the book of places to be visited in this wonderful city!! 💯🌟At Cidade Jardim shoping there is absolutely everything great, the best stores, designers, and restaurants! You find everything from all over the world in one place! With one of the best views in the city! I can say that, because that's where I spent my childhood! 🤍Absolutely divine, my second place, for sure🌟!!

A good hotel in a noisy location

There is no cheap stores here, unless you go to the Daiso store. There are a few very nice restaurants, but all do medium or high prices. Very nice place for that weekend walk with your partner.

calm place, nice experience, famous brands! Good places to snack or have coffee, and restaurants.

Right in middle of towering buildings is this beautiful piece of rainforest jungle. The massive trees actually give you a feel of being in a forest. It's a really beautiful place.

A great respite from the hustle and bustle of the busy central São Paulo core. It’s a beautiful large urban park that has massive trees and lots of birds. There are plenty of benches strategically placed throughout the park to sit and enjoy the lush vegetation and/or the beautiful songbirds. Grab a takeaway coffee or bite to eat nearby and come enjoy its serenity. The vegetation is high enough to almost obscure the adjacent high rises.

Very huge and green city park. Once you're inside, it doesn't feel like you're in a busy city. Good place to hangout and relax. Interesting concept of crossing the bridge over roads to the next half of the park. Playground for kids as well as free water machine that offers cold or room temperature.

Hard to do grounding here. They only have three spots that you can seat and put your feet on the ground. The other seats, you have to put your feet on top of the iced rocks! They need a neuroarchitect that understands human needs!

Nice benches and resting areas. Kids have 2 playgrounds. No washrooms but nearby small park (5min walk) has one!

…......Right in the heart of the business & residential area you will find this gem of a place it’s more of an encounter then an experience! When you enter here you’re overwhelmed by the sheer acknowledgment that this is paradise. And it’s been here since 1892 since it was opened, this year they celebrated 127 years of existence. Even the air you breathe in here in different. What an extraordinary idea it was to preserve a small portion of what was here when the founders arrived in the area of São Paulo almost 500 plus years ago, lush Atlantic tropical dense forest. The municipality has taken great pains and effort to create a park par excellence. It’s super clean and the pathways are more like roads beautifully and very professional paved with crushed off-white rocks or some-kind of a tile. It’s easy to move around in here even if you’re elder-lii, disabled in a wheelchair. Children can safe-lii run around and they even have a playground for just that. You will even find security personal patrolling the park so it’s very during the day when visiting here. There are lots of benches placed around the park to take breaks. Lots of statues on display although the name-tags are well worn-out so it not always easy to know who they represent or what part they played in the history of São Paulo but never-the-less they do add character to the park. There is also a statue of a Faun inside near the main entrance and at the main entrance off Paulista Avenue is a huge statue of a Brazilian explorer. There are lots of banners depicting the by-gone years and what took place here. The park is massive and if I’m not mistaken I do remember our tour guide Fabio mentioning that this park occupies about 48000 square meters of land. It is such an iconic and spectacular area that is so much a part of São Paulo set aside for everybody to see and enjoy. This park has some major roads running through it and has walkway bridges across them for the public to access and move around free-lii. The entrance-fee to this park is free of charge. This is a must visit when in Sao Paulo, Brazil…………NB! By the way at the main entrance on the pavement they have a street market selling foods, hand-made goods and different kinds of jewelry. An Art-Gallery is also to be found right opposite the park’s main entrance………..

Stressed?? Feel like getting away? Have a walk through this park, you will be in touch with nature in the middle of São Paulo. Very small park, but enough to have a relaxing moment with nature.

Lovely from the outside in. Divided by countries. Not too big but they have different buildings to visit. I like the bridge and artists on the wall. Worth it!

Awesome! They had a 80 year anniversary of batman expo there and it was fantastic. Check out the photos. Would definitely recommend to go there while this is there. Apart from that it was nothing too exciting, a few art sections..

Amazing place to go, you can always go to exhibitions in there (some of them are free). In about 4 years ago in my first visit to Memorial I saw “Catelo Ra-Tim-Bum” exhibition and last month I had the privilege of seeing “Batman 80”.

There's lots to see about Latin American culture, especially sculptures. I went to a concert and everything was really well organized and I quite enjoyed how it was done, lots of people attending with no inconvenience and enjoying themselves. There was food trucks and tents as well as a restaurant if you wanted to eat. And also booths to buy drinks. I'd definitely come back.

They’re strict with time. I came few minutes to 5pm and i wasn’t allowed to go in. I took pictures outside only which is nothing compared to going in. If you must go, appear before 5pm

Entertaining and historical, Latin America Memorial has enough space to house festivals, expositions, food fairs, great events and cultural exhibitions. Having an excellent staff and organization, you can search for events and daily agenda. Bring family, friends and everyone who's interested in learning and having fun.

Its a nice place to visit only when events happen. Space is big for outdoor events. Permanent exhibition is limit.

If you like religion and church staff ornaments and saints sculpture you must go to this beautiful museum ..in xmas time they had beautiful napolitan nativity xmas scene -presepio to see . Very beautiful !!

Incredible experience. Many fascinating figurines, paintings, etc... to see from 17th century to present. Friendly staff and inexpensive entry. Don't forget to check out all three entrances.

Very interesting museum with some wonderful folks running the place. Definitely worth a stop.

Beautiful collection and environment. Ancient doors and treasures from the church.

Impressive, well-maintained museum with some beautiful and unusual artefacts.

Is the collection of sacred statues and liturgical ornaments of the colonial past. The place is nice and there's a beautiful garden, surrounding the convent. Good selection of cultural books. Visitors can also buy bread and biscuits made in the community.

Try to time your visit so you can see an extensive Naples presepi (nativity scene) exhibit, which is open only 10-11am and 2-3pm. The entire museum is free on Saturdays. Very beautiful religious art collection inside a historic building. Interesting temporary exhibits as well.

A cultural gem! IMS SP offers superb photography, art, and music exhibits in a stunning modernist building. Free admission, great café, and peaceful garden. Perfect for art lovers. Limited parking, but worth the visit. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Instituto Moreira Sales at Avenida Paulista in São Paulo is an absolute gem nestled in the heart of this vibrant city. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that exudes creativity and cultural enrichment. This institute is a true haven for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike. The diverse range of exhibitions and collections on display is simply awe-inspiring. Whether you have a penchant for photography, film, literature, or visual arts, Instituto Moreira Sales offers a comprehensive and engaging experience for all. What sets this institute apart is not only its commitment to showcasing renowned national and international artists but also its dedication to fostering emerging talent. It serves as a platform for up-and-coming artists to showcase their work, giving them a space to express their creativity and gain recognition. The location itself is another reason to love Instituto Moreira Sales. Situated on Avenida Paulista, one of São Paulo's most iconic streets, it is easily accessible and surrounded by a vibrant cultural scene. After immersing yourself in the enriching exhibits at the institute, you can take a leisurely stroll and explore the numerous cafes, shops, and other cultural attractions in the area. The staff at Instituto Moreira Sales deserve a special mention for their exceptional knowledge, enthusiasm, and friendliness. They are always ready to provide insightful information and engage in meaningful conversations about the exhibits, further enhancing the overall experience.

Free photography exhibitions from 6th floor up. They are very good, artistic, and well-organized. It's a nice place to hang around.

Every showing is well curated and always surprises you. Richard Serra’s piece is a must when visiting São Paulo and IMS. The restaurant is 10/10

One of São Paulo’s amazing galleries - free entrance, excellent restaurant and cafe, and two amazing photography exhibits

It is such a cool building, at Paulista Avenue, with an amazing architecture for itself, even if it wasn’t for the exhibitions. The institute also have an amazing public library, a small bookshop, and the entry is free for most galleries. The archive of photography they have is incredible!

Great looking art museum in Sao Paulo that's a must visit if you are in the city. The building itself is really nice looking and holds a library, a theater and four floors of exhibits. Entrance is free and you can explore at your own pace. You can also grab a bit at Balaio downstairs

Very interesting museum about Sao Paulo and Brazil. There is a section on a perfume company that has been making perfumes and soaps for generations and you can get samples of some of the perfumes. There is also a section on the Amazon and furniture making. The exhibits all have the ability to see the information in English as well

The museum was made into a memorial of Brazilian kids educational tv show. Might be interesting to kids and those who want to learn about Brazilian pop/tv culture. For the money it costs - 40reais, I think it's a money grab, would be acceptable if it would have been 20.

Great Museum. Unexpectedly nice. Beautiful outdoor restaurant to go with it.

Great museum in Itaim bibi. They have a pretty nice garden with public events, fairs and local music and food festivals.

Very small place, but with amazing items from the Brazilian culture. I think it could have more pieces of a wider span of history... but it is very interesting and beautifully set

A quite small museum in a beautiful building in A. Farida Lima (where you rarely find such nice architecture!), unfortunately you get the written information only in Portuguese language (we didn't visit the Globo-show, perhaps it's different there). By the way: The entrance is for free.

This is a lovely place. It is free for the most part and you get to see what life looked like some time ago. The building itself looks very good, and it is a fantastic place to visit if you want to know what mansions in São Paulo looked like several decades ago. It is also a quiet and calm place, a nice getaway from all the traffic and noise present on Avenida Faria Lima. The exhibitions and old furniture inside are not groundbreaking, there isn't anything that you wouldn't find in other museums or art galleries in the city, and this is what cost this place its fifth star in my review.

I was expecting some more history.

Amazing historic place. I went there for a specific event and loved it. Couldn't check the expositions but they always have something cultural happening.

Absolutely gorgeous. Must see it you are in Sao Paulo

Wonderful museum and a beautiful exposition.

Great place to visit... Free entrance

Could be better curated, but it's fair enough.

Thought it was possible to cross it but the lower end was closed (at about noon)...

Went on a Wednesday and it was free for us! Got to know so much about the Japanese-Brazilians history and learned a lot! The staff were very friendly! The museum wish very organised and has English for almost 90% of the exhibitions! Very impressive and definitely recommend this to everyone!

An informative museum that offers wonderful insight into the history of Japanese immigrants in Brazil. It consists of 3 floors (starting on Floor 7) that bring a visitor chronologically through the reasons of immigration, the hardships faced, the impact of WWII, and recognition/assimilation. The top floor is reserved more for modern events and there's even a small cafe there. The exhibits are informative with replicated displays, pictures and videos, and translations of Portuguese into Japanese and English. It is free to visit on Wednesdays, but the entry fee is reasonable at R$16. One will need to keep their paper receipt throughout the exhibit as each floor has a scanner and turnstile one needs to go through

This visit was such a valuable learning experience! The museum is so organized and information so clear, it was a real delight, an absolute must when visiting São Paulo.

It's an interesting place if you are into history otherwise it's an ok ok place. You get to see the day to day things used by Japanese 100 yrs back in Brazil and you get to see lot of old photos with lot of readings. You can spend 1 to 2 hrs based on your appetite for knowing the history.

A well-designed museum with detailed information and documents about the over hundred-year history of Japanese immigrants in Brazil. I think it's an impressive and useful museum. Just point that can be criticised is the lack of English translation in the some areas.

Great museum that explains how the Japanese people immigrated to Brazil, with special focus to São Paulo region. It shows the hardships they've been through on the early half of the 20th century and how they overcame it, highlighting the great figures that made it happen. It has many pieces of that history, from a reconstruction of the ship that brought the first folk here to a recreation of the house of a field worker. Definitely worth visiting.

Really interesting museum, it’s well done. It shows everything and the information are always in English, Portuguese and Japanese. Highly recommended to the people that want to know more about the Japanese immigration in Brasil and how it’s developed during the year until now.

A nice look into the past of a very important piece of brazilian history. The 6th floor has some very interesting things! There you can see the old bills that we were used here! It also has a very very nice view to Sé Cathedral

Very impressed by this small cultural centre downtown. The exhibitions of that day where very well balanced and even my 3 yr old son was enjoying walking around. All for free and even a free music show for children.

Legal

The collection of old banking related apparatus is interesting, but the building lacks the splendor of some of the others in the area.

A gorgeous building. Quite impressive. Staff were very helpful as my Portuguese is minimal. Explaining the exhibitions etc. Well worth the visit.

Very interesting, lovely building inside, a bank that actually cares about people.

Amazing Cultural Centre! It's a place that concentrates good exhibitions (temporary and permanent) furthermore educational activities

Got to see the “free” portion of this museum and it was very underwhelming. The statutes and stained glass are the only attractions. There are extremely bare walls on the mezzanine begging to display something, yet they are drenched in white paint. However, it is accessible.

A small free museum showcasing rotating art. The lobby has some really nice stained glass art as well as some old church paintings. It’s worth stopping by if close to the area and just walking by, it’s not worth going to for the museum itself. Only street parking. Have to go through security to get in, but that’s very standard of Brazil. So, world class museum, no. But free and quaint.

Main entrance has a very steep ramp, not wheelchair friendly slope. Wheelchairs lined up on one wall but you have to go down 3 flights of stairs to leave your bags... How? If you decide to use the building's parking garage, there is yet another impossible ramp and no lift. It's one thing to instruct the staff to be accommodating. It's another entirely to actually have an accessible building.

It’s a interesting museum in Sao Paulo closed to Pacaembu. It’s for free to see exhibition. You just tell reception that you want to visit museum, they allow you to enter and give you the badge. There are not many things, so you san see all less than 1hour.

So beautiful paintings and artworks, quiet and cozy atmosphere, polite and friendly behavior of employees with respect, Free Entrance

A nice place but I felt it was a Seat of Learning first, and a Museum second. If you enjoy Stained Glass GO.

Best museum in sao paulo

Very nice and clean market that is very different than traditional markets I have been to. Very friendly vendors as well. Unless you are eating, you probably won’t spend more than 30 minutes here but it is worth stopping by if you are in the area.

A very nice place to check out some of the Brazilian regional stuff as well buying fresh produces. The municipal market also has some restaurants ( italian, pizza, mediterranean). The place is very clean and well kept

Great place for groceries, drinks, fruits, vegetables and great new restaurants! There are many options from ceviche, to pizza, to hamburgers, to local rice-and-beans-and-meat. Great place to buy draft beer, wines, nuts, cheese and so on. It has been remodeled recently. The surroundings have also had a wonderful improvement. A nice place to visit every day except Sundays. A sunny Saturday is a must!

Lovely place, lots of options to buy food and try the culture from Brazil. My favourite part was definitely the food from Amazon. Highly recommend

Well, to experience the very touristic experience it’s nice. If you don’t eat pork or mortadella don’t even go there

Delish foods. Lots of meats and fish stalls. A lot of exotic fruits to buy. We got mortadela sandwiches and oysters. So tasty. It is a small market with kind of expensive prices. Come here if you want a yummy lunch and do some grocery shopping.

Solid 4 stars. But can not say it’s a 5 star place because the prices seemed to be very expensive. There were a couple unique shops on the periphery of the market that were interesting. Again, very expensive. Difficult to figure out the parking situation there. There seems to be a parking specifically for the market but it’s very hard to find and access. We had to pay for parking around the block at a lot across the street. There are better markets in São Paulo.

Absolutely love how they transformed this heritage building into observation deck, bar and exhibit complex. The bar in the basement worths a visit because that’s where the safe of the bank used to be. The observation deck on the top is impressive!

Great view and didn't take to long to go up. Once at the top there is a cafe as well as the balconies. Great uninterrupted views. The building has a lot of historic features too from it's days under Banespa

Nice view over the city but a shame that the glass is dirty so it's difficult to take good photos. Also there are viewing platforms on 2 sides of the building but not 360 view. There's a cafe on the 26th floor which does various food and hot drinks or a bar/restaurant on the 28th floor.

Really nice the storyline of Sao Paulo's state bank. There's a nice coffee shop on the last floor. Lovely view, the art is unique, the history preserved and the construction beautiful.

The view of this iconic building in Sao Paulo's skyline is amazing. You can go up to the 23rd floor and admire the city's main buildings from the top, but the observatory area is a little tight and can get a little crowded. You can also lear a little bit about the history of the building, translated only in English. Admissions starts at R$10 up to R$20.

The views are limited by a glass, can be crowded but you still can get your view. Not 360 degrees view since it is only one side of the building and another across the coffee room. There are other attractions in the building that worth seeing. The coffee is okay, you don’t get view from the coffee but you pay an expensive price to have it.i wouldn’t go back… nothing special

Awesome place to visit in downtown Sao Paulo. Great art exhibits and views from the top. The restaurant on floor 26 is also pretty good and, amazingly, not expensive.

Local top

good food and dancing.

Good place to go out with friends.

Top!

Ok

Very nice view
