Great place to enjoy nature, have a nice long walk/run, read a book next to the lake, take your kids to have fun, see the art expositions and even visit the planetarium inside. There are some restaurants with decent food and you can buy snacks all around the park. If you’re a foreigner, it’s super safe (even at night)!

Pretty park with lush grounds. We rented the bikes they offer and rode around the place. The bikes for 2 are $4/hr! And the bicycles are $2/hr. Lots of carts selling fresh coconut juice, and other snacks. Plenty spots to have a picnic. Stopped at a restaurant there, with very friendly service. The restrooms very clean too! 👍

Parque Ibirapuera, the sprawling park in São Paulo, offers an immense and delightful experience. Renting bicycles to explore the park allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in its beauty and grandeur. The lush greenery, serene lakes, and well-maintained pathways created the perfect backdrop for a captivating adventure. Riding through Parque Ibirapuera provided us with a wonderful opportunity to connect with nature, unwind, and appreciate the urban oasis that this park truly is.

This is a large park that provides plenty of space for running, cycling, picnics, walking... There's a large play area for families with children, a beautiful lake with ducks, sufficient clean restrooms,and a few places to eat. Weekends are especially popular.

A nice pack in the middle of the city. Think of it as Central Park on New York City, the Brazilian version though 😜. You can rent bikes to go around the park, enjoy the view of the water and also visit the Afro Museum and some other near by attractions. The entry to the park is free. It has a number of eateries and hawkers within the park for drinks and food. It can get hot so be prepared.

Absolutely beautiful park. Probably one of the best parks I've ever been too. There's so much to do and lots of food places to grab a snack. They also have a Japanese Garden you can check out. I highly recommend going if you have the chance.

Cool park in the city to walk around. It’s got a couple loops with ponds. You can rent bikes. We went when it was lightly raining but it was still nice to see. Wish I had more time to spend inside.

Un buen lugar para caminar los días domingo. Algunas tiendas y centros comerciales cerrados pero es un lugar cómodo y fresco para visitar (Translated by Google) A good place to walk on Sundays. Some shops and shopping centers closed but it is a comfortable and cool place to visit

On Sunday morning are not really people there. But one of the most interesting streets in Sao Paulo. It‘s a „must-see“ place.

Nice place to visit when sau paulo ...

Classic landmark in São Paulo During Sundays the avenue it’s fully closed for cars

One of my favorite places for walking in São Paulo.

Famous street in Sao Paulo. Reminds me of Ayala Avenue in Makati, Philippines.

I visited Avenida Paulista on Feb 2021, right on the day the State of Sao Paulo announced another lockdown. I thought there will be no people out on the streets but I was so wrong. People can still roam around freely. I'm so glad I decided to travel to Brazil beginning of Feb 2021. I had fun seeing the city and the people. With the help of the subway (plus the subway fare is so cheap), visiting point A to point B isn't that complicated. I had fun! I take all photos myself, even my selfie! Check out my IG- @jl.dormido

Loved how beautiful the food looks, the building has great features too. Too bad you get the feeling you have to excuse yourself if you don't want to try the products from every other stand. I can imagine some people like to sample everything, but I don't feel comfortable. The famous sandwich is great, but a bit too much meat, but hey that's the typical Brazilian style!

I really like this place. As a child my parents used to take us there . It’s a colourful place, with a variety of fruits,meats,fishes,wines and more. The famous mortadella sandwich is big and delicious you must try it .

Buzzing market surrounded by more stands outside. Very busy over the weekend. Upstairs you’ll find many restaurants offering Brazilian food. Most places will offer you fresh fruit to try, dried cod and cervesas.

Very dangerous and a lot of people only watching your belongings ! I went a restaurant and I tried a mozzarella baguette and was delicious but it was very big and I didn’t finish it.

AMAZED. Free pass on Saturday to the best art gallery I’ve seen in a while. Clean spaces, amplitude to walk and explore. Clear signs explaining the whole thing. And a variety between styles, artistic methods, ages and people. All together in a beautiful architectural spectacle that mixed modern and rustic with sunlight, statues and halls.

This is truly one of the best museums in the world. Pinacoteca is one of those places that you would need days to truly understand and decompress. With a great collection of Brazilian Modernist Era, the museum’s architecture details its a must all by itself. Besides it’s great collection the museum also have temporary exhibitions with great artists, so it be good to check it before attending. The tickets to temporary exhibitions and weekends tends to sold out very quickly, and there is one day of the week when you can get in for free. If you’re going by public transportation be careful to the surroundings, the neighborhood it’s not dangerous but don’t be distracted with your belongings. Also take some time to walk in the garden with lots of sculptures by different artists is a very enjoyable experience by itself. If you wanna take some pictures I suggest the afternoon lighting that entes that glass ceiling, it’s just idyllic.

Very interesting place, pretty cheap parking and you can enter Pinacoteca galleries for free. Garden is very nice as well, I’m hot days you will appreciate shade made by trees.

High variety of paints and sculpts exposed. Entrance was $30 reais per person.

This museum is one of the oldest in São Paulo. The art collection is huge, each room is overflowing with different pieces. In a way it is actually quite overwhelming and intense, it’s difficult to digest the sheer amount. There is no flowing journey or consistency. There is deep contrast not just room to room, but often throughout a room. You would need to spend an entire day here to truly begin to appreciate and digest what’s on display. It’s quite remarkable at the same time. I recommend a visit.

The Pinacoteca do Estado de Sao Paulo is one of the most prominent art museums in Sao Paulo, located next to Estação da Luz, which is connected to the Metro Yellow Line. Entry is totally free on Saturdays (and on Thursday nights, 6pm to 10 pm) The Pinacoteca's was designed by Ramos de Azevedo, building is a beautiful example of Brazilian architecture from the early 20th century. In 1998, it went through a masterful renovation process, designed by the Pritzer Prize laureate, architect Paulo Mendes da Rocha. The museum's interior gallery spaces are well thought out and provides an excellent backdrop for the art on display. The galleries are spacious. The natural light of the atriums, connected by steel bridges is the perfect symbiosis between the classic building and contemporary architecture. The museum's café in the underground floor connects with Praça da Luz, providing an exuberant view of the park and a relaxing atmosphere, a pleasant and calm space that could make you forget you're in the fourth most populated city on earth (and one of the most dangerous areas of Sao Paulo). The museum's collection is vast, covering a range of styles and periods, with an emphasis on Brazilian art from the 19th century to the present day. The Pinacoteca is especially known for its collection of modernist art, featuring works by well-known Brazilian artists such as Tarsila do Amaral, Anita Malfatti, and Lasar Segall. Additionally, the museum has an extensive collection of photographs, engravings, and drawings, providing visitors with a comprehensive view of Brazilian art history. Overall, the Pinacoteca do Estado de Sao Paulo is a world-class, must-visit for anyone interested in Brazilian art and culture. The museum's impressive collection, beautiful architecture, and commitment to education make it one of the most important cultural institutions one could ask for.

A museum full of history in every aspect, not only about football itself but also how global events and the passing of the years in Brazil shaped and influenced the course of this amazing sport, but also how itself changed a nation and the world too! Diverse rooms full of pictures, videos, memorabilia, recordings of radio transmissions of old matches, and interactive games make this museum a MUST SEE in São Paulo! And to top it off: a café/bar to drink a coffee or a cold beer after the intense walking and admiration of the museum! I highly recommend it!

The Football Museum in São Paulo is a captivating experience for lovers of Brazil's most popular sport. With its location inside the iconic Pacaembu Stadium, the museum offers an immersion in the history of national football. Positives: The well-organized exhibition provides a rich chronological journey, from the beginnings to the historic moments of the World Cups. Audio-visual aids, including videos and moving narrations, make the visit engaging. In addition, interactive interactions such as virtual goal kicks and 3D football games captivate visitors, especially children and teenagers. Negative points: On days of great flow, the museum can be crowded, which can diminish the experience, making it difficult to appreciate some exhibits. On the day of my visit, there were several pieces of equipment without proper maintenance or out of service, a pity. In reality, I believe that it is already necessary to reform, update (there are many clubs that are not even mentioned throughout the exhibition) and general improvement of the environment. Overall, the Football Museum is a must-see destination for anyone wanting to experience the rich history and culture of Brazilian football, but it is recommended to plan your visit on less busy days to fully enjoy the experience.

What a very nice and upstanding museum devoted to futebol and the heros of Brazilian futebol!

A good place to spend awhile looking around and learning about the history of football in Brazil. Many different exhibits chronicling the history of football in this nation. My only complaint would be a lack of English information sometimes, and so I had to skip some parts of the museum as I didn't really understand what they wanted to explain.

If you're looking for something cultural to see this place is on point. What better place to visit than a futball (soccer) museum when in Brazil. This place has a good history of futball in Brazil and around the world and some amazing displays. It is well set out and you can walk from section to the next easily learning and discovering one thing after the other about the beautiful game in Sao Paulo. My personal favorites where their displays of the balls used throughout history. The evolution of the futball boot or cleat throughout the years and their display for each world cup showing the culture and history. I would recommend to check this place out if you are in town.

I like visiting a new stadium, would have preferred to be able to see the stadium as part of the visit to the museum. The exposition is really cool and interesting, lots of interactive things to do. Only thing I would suggest is to add English descriptions as for me, no portuguese speaker, think I missed a lot of the content. Yet, it was free to enter on Sunday

Well worth the visit to learn about the Brazilian football history and the cultural connect.

I was dragged along by a football fan but it was an okay place.to visit even if you're not a huge football fan (me). Nice displays and history of Brazilian football and football in general. Usually 5 reals entrance but the day we went was free. Highly recommend if you are a football fan.

5 stars for free! Tuesday for free! Cool you're actually right under the stadium seats, gives off an urban backstreet vibe. Futbol lovers can spend hours here I imagine, this is a nice 45 minute stop for me. Kkk.

I am from the US, and I'm not a soccer (futbol) fan. When visiting Brazil, it's hard not to appreciate soccer and what it means to Brazilians. This great museum showcases that perfectly. It was a great rate R$20 and had many wonderful photos, memorabilia, videos, interactive exhibits. It's located at an old soccer stadium, so an added bonus is seeing the remains of the stadium. A must see even if you're like me and not a soccer fan.

Worth visiting. Free entrance on tuesdays but needs online reservation days ahead to get a ticket. Your QR code will be scanned at the entrance. Nice museum. Very interactive, the exhibits are very modern and very creative, very enticing. Even not a football fan will enjoy this museum. I envy we dont have this kind of museum. One of the modern museums around Paulista area. The art deco stadium itself is worth a visit. During my last visit they are overhauling the bleachers, an upgrade or restoration maybe , not so sure. A must see in Paulista area..

Great place nice service. Price is ok as compared to quantity served (some people may disagree). Great place overall waiters are attentive and friendly. The only thing I find a little off is the service fee they were charging (which unfortunately I didn't pay).

I do not understand why this chain is that famous. I had a dish with shrimps dipped in cream and fried potatoes. It was not bad, but a way too heavy and not refined at all, missing some seasoning. It was too much of everything. Also it's absolutely not a good choice if you are a solo traveler since most plates are at least fot 2 people. When I asked if they can prepare half portion for 1 person they said no. However, I guess it can be a nice dinner if you go with a group of friends.

It's a posh restaurant with lots of variety of seafood from Fortaleza. The quantity of the dishes are quite big, so do come prepared to eat lots! And the spicy sauce they have is delicious.

Live music and seafood. Modern style. Professional staff

Great place with a good ambience! There are a tone of option in the menu... really a lot!! Atmosphere 5/5 cool modern place with lots of room Service 4/5 good service with reliable waiters Quality 5/5 food here is top notch and delicious. Portions normally serve 2 people so prices seem high but if you divide everything by 2 or 3 sometimes it comes to a reasonable price per person.

We had a wonderful time at the restaurant and Herbert really tried to communicate with us. Bianca was also very helpful. Be prepared to eat a lot!

The food was great. Lots of seafood dishes.

This restaurant is suitable for family gathering, friends meet up and also romantic dinner with your love one. The environment is so relax, clean and you will be served with a great live performance. The service also fast and some of their waiter or waitress can speak English. Their price also affordable.

This was the worst service I received in my life. We got to the restaurant, the lady took us to our seats. Our table was dirty and no one came to clean. We asked twice and it took about 20 minutes for them to clean it. Then same thing for us to order it. No one came to pick up our order and in the end we had to ask 2 more times. Then the food came and it was good, but everyone was being so rude that it wasn’t worth it. I wouldn’t recommend it

One of the best restaurant in brazil the food is perfect they use fresh fish and shrimp 🍤

Absolutely loved the place! Five stars to the restaurant in view of the place of its operation. Delicious food, sophisticated menu, mouthwatering deserts, best caipirinha. Would only suggest to replace the paper sachet sugar from the tables with a more presentable tableware. Otherwise, it is a place I will come again and again. And yes, it was -extremely- busy at lunchtime.

Too Expensive although the food is not at a high target, the staff is quite lazy and clumsy. The location is nice and also the guy who was singing was very pleasant and relaxing.

This place is awesome! Food is one of the best in São Paulo! If you are a seafood lover, you should definitely come here. When I went to this place, I ordered the “rede do pescador” plate and it was so well prepared! The shrimp simply melts into your mouth and the seasoning is one of the best I have ever tasted! Loved it loved it and loved! Would definitely come back here to celebrate a special date!

Although the wait took more than a hour, the food in general was good, but service was "ok" ...they were more polite when you do the first orders but later they tend to ignore you most of the time. (Even when you ring the bell from the table) The oysters are smaller than they appear haha but was good.

Best Japanese food so far in SP after trying 10+ places. Always fresh fish. Local takes on some of the rolls with jams and maracuja are a bit weird.

Good variety of sushi. Good Drinks and attentive service. Igor was very lovely and a server Marcos as well. My family use to go to this place a lot in the past and since we are visiting we wanted to go. It was great.

Great place!! The rodízio was awesome. Great service as well. High recommend.

Rated No.7 on the worlds 50 best restaurant of the world on 2023 and have been on the top 10 for years. It’s truly amazing. This place serve everything pig. If you visited the first time maybe you can try their tasting menu which includes fishes from all over Latin America. But since I’ve been to all those places so I decided to try their signature dishes from a la cart menu. The menu is not big but the food is delicious and surprisingly really affordable. I was trying to reserve but it was booked out for the next four months. In the end I was able to get a walk in table at 5pm without waiting. The hostess said the best time for walk in is between 5pm and 6:30pm on weekdays. Other time would have to wait for at least 2hrs because their tasting menu is 1.5 hrs. Staffs are friendly and some speak good English so ordering is not a problem. Some seating on the street but might have mosquito.

Amazing food. Preparations on the tasting menu were balanced and beautiful. Service was fantastic. Highly recommend!!

I attended the restaurant with a group of 6. We ordered the tasting menu with matching drinks. Honestly I was overall disappointed and unable to find one overly positive thing to say. From the moment we arrived, menus were chucked on the table in front of us without much of a greeting at all before the server walked off. There was a seemingly lack of organisation amongst the staff as they seemed to scramble to bring each dish out. We politely asked if there was anyone that could provide information on each dish in English when they came out - we were told that the manager would be happy to do this. The managers attitude from the moment he had to come and speak in English was that of complete disregard, he was obviously annoyed by the fact he had to do it. Honestly would have rather they just said sorry we can’t, it would have been better than the lacklustre service that the duty manager showed us. Back to the food, I was disappointed to be honest, it just seemed to lack taste and was a bit too pretentious. As we sat there looking around we felt like we had made a mistake by choosing the tasting menu as many items that people were ordering around us from the a la cart menu looked considerably better. For a meal that cost over $3000 BRL we left the place feeling a bit confused how this restaurant could be considered the 12th best in the world? Do yourself a favour and skip out on this one when in SP.

This probably is the most hyper restaurant in Brazil at the moment, so reservations are very hard to come by. I'm not a big fan of the rankings of restaurants, as we all have individual preferences. The food here is very good and at the current exchange rate, prices are affordable for foreigners. The tasting menu comes in at R$165. Drinks are expensive by local standards, but not shockingly so. If you enjoy pork, it is worth making the effort to book this restaurant. They also had a vegetarian tasting menu available. Service was attentive and friendly with detailed explanations given of all dishes. Foreign credit cards accepted with no issues.

Absolutely amazing place! The presentation of the plates and the taste of the food were both out of this world! Menu "degustacion" + drinks is ~$100. Get there at 1030am, so you can place your name on the list and almost guaranteed you'll be eating at 12pm. I'd recommend sitting inside!

Didn’t have a reservation (you can reserve 4 months in advance but they run out so fast) but we decided to go on a Monday lunchtime and we got a table pretty easily. Foods were immaculate! The highlight for me was the crispy pork with guava paste. No wonder it’s the best restaurant in SP

Tried a tasting menu and pork san ze. Both was good but i would welcome some optional spice like fresh chili chopped up. I developed taste for spicy food and it all seemed very bland apart from lovely crunch marinated beetroot. Service was excellent and the interior with stunning fresh flowers at the bar was great too. We were lucky to dine here as online we couldn’t get a booking for many months but turning up at a restaurant and signing ourselves on a waiting list (where we were 19th) helped and within 4 hours our booking confirmation arrived!

The food was great. The service excellent. They had a couple of waiters who spoke Spanish very well. It was a great experience overall.

Very well rated and it delivers on what you would expect. We had the latin inspired tasting menu and it was great. Very imaginative dishes. Who would have thought that a pig ear cevice could be a thing, let alone delicious. The service was great as well, giving us explanations about each of the dishes. They also spoke English. Well worth coming.

Amazing restaurant! Had the tasting menu which was delicious. Everything was so tasty. The service was super friendly and accommodating. Nice drinks with cachaca. Had a table outside and it was pretty cozy too and did not have to wait after getting in line as I did not have a reservation. I recommend to go early to get in line. Definitely one of the best restaurants in the world and a must to eat in Sao Paulo.
