For tourists who have decided to visit this amazing city, its green spaces are a must, not least the Ibirapuera Park.

One of the most visited areas of tours and entertainment, it covers an area of about a million and a half square metres of green lanes.

Once inside the park, it is possible to walk along its impeccable tracks or even do some sports. There are bicycle lanes available as well and sport grounds and even small lakes.

In addition, culture is another attraction this park has to offer. The Modern Art Museum and the OCA Art Exhibition Centre are some of the major ones.
