Top 8 Natural History Museums in State of Sao Paulo, Brazil

October 2, 2021 Karren Gelb

São Paulo (Portuguese pronunciation: [sɐ̃w ˈpawlu] ( listen)) is one of the 26 states of the Federative Republic of Brazil and is named after Saint Paul of Tarsus. As the richest Brazilian state and a major industrial complex, often dubbed the "locomotive of Brazil", the state is responsible for 33.9% of the Brazilian GDP. São Paulo also has the second highest Human Development Index (HDI) and GDP per capita, the fourth lowest infant mortality rate and the third lowest rate of illiteracy among the federative units of Brazil. São Paulo alone is richer than Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and Bolivia combined. If São Paulo were an independent country, its nominal GDP would be ranked among the top 20 in the world (2010 estimate). The economy of São Paulo State is the most developed in Brazil.

Jardim Botanico de Sao Paulo

Calm, green and refreshing, the city's botanical garden, situated inside the immense Parque Estadual Fontes do Ipiranga (PEFI) on the south side of town, provides a beautifully appointed sanctuary for thousands of tropical plant and animal species. The garden opened in 1938 to preserve part of the remaining Atlantic coastal forest, and it functions as a research facility focusing on Brazilian flora and fauna. The garden also shelters the source of the Rio Ipiranga, which figures heavily into national patriotic lore.

The Botanical Gardens in Sao Paulo are quite well developed and contain a large tract of closed forest as well as well appointed gardens and expansive park areas. There are many semi-secluded areas for visitors to put space between each other for a picnic or just relax on the lawn. In addition to a wide variety of plants including an orchid house it was suprising to see the wildlife there including Howler Monkeys and Toucans. I will be going back for respite and to enjoy and learn more about Brazillian plants.
