Villa-Lobos State Park, Urban recreational park in São Paulo, Brazil
Villa-Lobos State Park encompasses 732,000 square meters of green spaces along the Pinheiros River, featuring walking paths and sports facilities.
The park, established in 1989, transformed a former waste disposal site through the removal of 500,000 cubic meters of debris and extensive environmental rehabilitation.
Architect Décio Tozzi designed the park with a music city theme to honor Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos, incorporating musical elements throughout the space.
The park welcomes 5,000 visitors on weekdays and up to 30,000 during holidays, offering bike paths, sports courts, and outdoor exercise equipment.
The Circuito das Árvores provides a 120-meter elevated walkway where visitors observe the park's 37,000 trees from above.
