Higienópolis, Residential district in central São Paulo, Brazil.

This high-end neighborhood features wide tree-lined streets with a collection of modern apartments and European-style residential buildings.

The area transformed from Jesuit-owned Sesmaria do Pacaembu in the 16th century into an upper-class residential district during the early 1900s.

The district houses multiple educational institutions, including Mackenzie Presbyterian University and FAAP, along with numerous art galleries and theaters.

The neighborhood connects to São Paulo's transportation network through Higienópolis-Mackenzie metro station and multiple bus lines on Rua da Consolação.

Between 20% and 40% of São Paulo's Jewish population resides in Higienópolis, with several synagogues and Hebrew schools in the area.
