Ramos de Azevedo Park, Park in São Paulo, Brazil
Ramos de Azevedo Park is a green space in the center of São Paulo, next to the Anhangabaú Valley. It has wide paths, flower beds, and a small lake, and it is surrounded by historic buildings.
The park was created in the early 20th century as part of the urban renewal of the Anhangabaú Valley. It was renovated in the 1990s and has since become a central meeting point in the city.
The park is a common spot for office workers to take a break, and on weekends families gather around the lake to feed the fish. Its name honors the architect Ramos de Azevedo, and a statue of him stands near the entrance.
The park is easy to reach on foot from nearby metro stations and has paved paths that are accessible for wheelchairs and strollers. It is busiest at lunchtime on weekdays, so mornings are a good time to visit if you want more space.
The lake is home to a group of carps that are used to people, and you can often see them swimming close to the edge. The park also has a small stage where free concerts and events take place occasionally.
