As the city’s green lung, Ibirapuera Park is a staple of Sao Paulo sightseeing tours, which typically transport you between urban highlights—including Republic Square (Praca da Republica), Paulista Avenue (Avenida Paulista), and Liberdade (Bairro da Liberdade)—by bus and bike, or on foot. Several walking tours focus primarily on the park, and the museums and landmarks it encompasses; some experiences include skip-the-line admission tickets to both the Museum of Contemporary Art and the Museum of Modern Art.
The nearest metro stations to Ibirapuera Park are Brigadeiro, Ana Rosa, Paraiso, Vila Mariana, and Santa Cruz, all of which are under 10 minutes from the park on foot. You can rent a bike in the park for an hourly fee.
The park itself is typically open from the early hours of the morning until midnight and 24 hours on weekends. In January and July each year, the Biennial Pavilion hosts São Paulo Fashion Week, as well as trade shows and biennials throughout the year. The park’s museums are open throughout the year—usually from morning until early evening, but may be closed on select days of the week.
