If you’re a passionate art lover, you’ll feel right at home in São Paulo without even visiting its many amazing museums and galleries. Art is splattered all over the walls of this Brazilian metropolis. Here are some of the spots you should visit if you’re a huge fan of street art.
Ibirapuera Park
São Paulo is home to one of the most visited parks in all of South America, but that’s not the only reason why you should visit this green oasis. This park is home to several works of art by the popular street artists Otávio and Gustavo Pandolfo aka OsGemeos, but you can find graffiti and murals by other local artists scattered all around it if you look close enough.
Vila Madalena
Retro cafés, indie boutiques, and contemporary art galleries line the streets of this bohemian district in São Paulo, but that’s not the only reason why you should visit it. This area is best known for its thriving art scene and you can spend hours exploring its colorful walls.
Beco Do Batman
If we had to pick a single corner of São Paulo that perfectly encapsulates its street art scene, it would be this narrow alley in Vila Madalena. It’s home to some of the city’s most Instagram-friendly murals and serves as an open-air gallery for Brazil’s most prominent street artists.
