You step onto broad paths that cut through open lawns and reflective lakes, the city’s hum softening into footsteps and distant conversations. The starting point near Avenida Pedro Álvares Cabral puts the Auditório Ibirapuera and the curved roof of Oca within sight; clues on your phone nudge you toward sculptures, kiosks and museum façades as the park itself begins to provide answers.
