Governor's Residence Park is an urban green space with walking paths, garden areas, and seating throughout its grounds in the São Brás district. The site includes various planted sections and different areas designed for people to move through and rest.
The grounds received official protection status and were classified as a DPHAC heritage site in 1982. This designation means the area was recognized as worth preserving under heritage protection laws.
