About
The emerald heart of an oftentimes gray city, São Paulo's Parque do Ibirapuera offers respite from the urban madness among cool, shady trees and mentally-stimulating structures. Running trails, bike paths, and yoga and capoeira sessions let locals and visitors alike keep fit, while a clutch of museums and galleries — such as the museums of Modern and Contemporary Art, all designed by master Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer — gives the brain a good workout. The impressive Museu Afro Brasil and fiery Auditório Ibirapuera are two of the park's treasures.

Neighbourhood: Ibirapuera
Ibirapuera Park, the highlight of this neighbourhood, is a family-friendly area to have a picnic, relax, play sports, exercise or appreciate art.

- Lidia KPoznan, Poland772 contributionsHuge park, nice placeA great place for a walk, rest, but also for sports. Here you will find a place for a picnic, playgrounds and group sports, but also secluded places away from the crowds. A huge park with wide asphalt roads with separate lanes for pedestrians, runners and bicycles. In many places there are stalls with drinks, acai or coconut water, but also a few pubs. Beautiful vegetation, flowers and plenty of large trees for shade. Two ponds, and in one of them a fountain illuminated after dark. The part of the park dedicated to culture - buildings with art galleries and exhibitions, artistic murals, a planetarium and several other attractions. Certainly not for one day.Visited October 2022Travelled as a coupleWritten 28 February 2023

I haven´t found in the park some written information, but as it is in the entry to Congonhas airport I am sure it is restricted or forbidden.
Posso fazer um piquenique com os meus amigos, tem alguma restrição por causa do covid ?
