Jardim do Parque da Independência, French-style garden in Ipiranga district, São Paulo, Brazil.

The garden features geometric paths, ornamental fountains, and carefully arranged flowerbeds with azaleas, boxwood, and rose gardens spread across multiple levels.

Belgian landscape architect Arsenius Puttemans designed this garden in 1907, drawing inspiration from the Palace of Versailles for its neoclassical layout.

The garden forms part of Independence Park, a national heritage site that commemorates Brazil's separation from Portugal in 1822.

Visitors can access free parking, Wi-Fi networks, and adapted facilities including fitness equipment, restrooms, and circulation areas throughout the garden.

The garden's original construction required lowering the ground level by 14 meters and installing 100 fountains during Brazil's independence centenary in 1922.
