Holambra, Dutch agricultural settlement near São Paulo, Brazil.
Holambra demonstrates Dutch influence through its tulip-shaped road signs, flower-named streets, and traditional European architectural elements throughout the town.
In 1948, the Dutch Organization of Catholic Farmers purchased 5,000 acres of land near Campinas, establishing a settlement for 680 Dutch immigrants.
The town maintains Dutch traditions through its architecture, gardens, windmills, and annual flower festivals that celebrate the fusion of Brazilian and Dutch heritage.
Visitors can explore Van Gogh Park, Dutch Lake, and numerous flower farms that produce a large portion of Brazil's flower exports.
The name Holambra combines three words - Holland, America, and Brazil - reflecting the multicultural foundation of this agricultural community.
