Tatuapé District, Administrative district in São Paulo, Brazil.
Description
Tatuapé is a district in eastern São Paulo divided into northern and southern sections by the Radial Leste highway and railway lines. Both areas contain residential neighborhoods, commercial streets, and educational institutions that serve the local community.
History
The name comes from the Tupi Guarani language, connecting the place to its indigenous roots. Late in the 19th century, Italian immigrants arrived and established vineyards, transforming the area into a growing settlement.
Culture
Italian immigrants left a lasting mark on the district through vineyards and craft traditions that shaped its character. You can still see this heritage reflected in local shops and family-run restaurants throughout the neighborhoods.
Practical
Two major shopping centers are directly connected to metro stations, offering quick access to downtown São Paulo and Guarulhos International Airport. Local buses and streetcar lines also connect smaller residential areas within the district.
