The City Theater is a historic landmark very near the apt and worth a visit. Maybe you can see an opera or a ballet. Not sure if they'll open this 2020. It's very near Light Shopping Mall which is also a listed heritage building worth a visit.

Nice historic building that used to be home for the Bank of Brazil (Banco do Brasil) that turned it into a cultural house with great exhibitions. It's in the city's historic downtown in a pedestrian only zone. Near the Stock Exchange, Farol Santander, bar/rest Salve Jorge.

Beautiful and well conserved art from Africa or African descendants who came to Brazil during the 300+ years of slavery. It’s inside the Ibiraquera Park in a Oscar Niemeyer’s building, as most of the park. Highly recommended.

Right at Paulista Ave it's an oasis for literally chilling out as the native rain forest there is pretty intense. Don't miss the amazing statue of the Faun by Italian-Brazilian sculptor Victor Brecheret.

Always look around before using your smartphone
Be careful while taking pictures or texting with your smartphone anywhere in this town. Unfortunately, this is a very common type of burglary (and theft). The most common is someone on a bike takes your phone while you're talking, typing or taking pics.
