The benches and trees interwoven by a little path are quite sweet and enjoyable for taking a break on a stroll or a run through the neighborhood. The rest of the park elements feel rather random - a giant statue in homage to the park's namesake, a set of rusted rings and bars for adults to hang from and a tiny play structure for kids. All are nice but in the small space of the park each feels incomplete. Unfortunately (and quite oddly given the amount of security patrolling the neighborhood) I've seen vagrants camped out there various times. There are parking spaces surrounding the park, but I've never seen them too empty. On weekends the nearby church is packed with weddings and Services, so parking in the area can be quite tough. Not a destination in and of itself but not a bad spot to checkout if you're nearby.

The larger park is really lovely and while it's not massive, it's big enough to offer a needed respite from the city hustle. While not big enough to dedicate an entire jog (contrary to Ibirapuera park), it's great for an afternoon stroll and during opening hours, you'll find lovers cuddling on park benches, loners on the grass with a book, and kids on their daytime outing. As for the dog park, it's a decent size and while there's plenty of room to run, you won't find any grass here. It's mostly a packed dirt surface, so on rainy days, this might not be the best "clean" play option. Then again, there's almost always dogs there so it's nice for a quick powwow amongst pups.

Very pretty park located on Angelina Avenue, right before you get to Avenue Paulista. There are…read moreseveral restaurants, grocery stores, and street food options nearby, so grab a snack (or maybe a cold coconut water from the vendor that's usually near the entrance to the park, by the bus stop) and sit down to relax amongst the hustle and bustle of São Paulo. A beautiful green space inside the city, with a children's play area and a dog run! There are many interesting sculptures within the park that are worth checking out as well. It's a small park but still a very relaxing place. Park staff does a great job of keeping it clean, so be sure to help them out by placing any of your trash in the receptacles, which are conveniently located.

Step into this park and it's like going back in time. The native trees are absolutely gorgeous and so calming. To me, spending time here is better than a trip to the spa! I used to come here almost every day when I lived in Jardins. I miss it! Of course, amidst the tranquil beauty, there are often musicians, speakers, rallies, and all kinds of other exciting events. There is also a cute dog park nextdoor (the best time to go is around 5:00 p.m. for "doggy happy hour") and a small arts fair on weekends right by the main entrance to the park.
