Itapetininga, Educational center in São Paulo state, Brazil.

The municipality extends across 1,790 square kilometers of fertile lands at 670 meters elevation in the southern region of São Paulo state.

Portuguese settlers established Nossa Senhora dos Prazeres de Itapetininga in 1770, which became a vital stop for cattle traders traveling through southern Brazil.

The name derives from Tupi-Guarani language roots, reflecting the indigenous heritage through its meaning of path made with dry stones.

Itapetininga connects to São Paulo city through a 170-kilometer road network and maintains agricultural production of corn, cotton, beans, and potatoes.

The municipal flag displays six blue stars in its white canton, representing the districts while incorporating green, yellow, black, and white horizontal stripes.
