Andraus Building

The Andraus Building is a 32-story skyscraper located in the República district of downtown São Paulo. Completed in 1962 and standing 115 meters tall, it serves as a landmark of the city's mid-century urban architecture. Travelers visit the site to observe its exterior design and its place within the historical skyline of the central business district. The building currently houses government offices.

Getting There

The building is located within the city centre. If you are staying in the central area, it is accessible via a short walk or a brief taxi or ride-share trip. Travel time from nearby central hotels typically takes less than 10 minutes.

Time Requirement

Since the building is primarily used for administrative government functions, most visitors spend approximately 30 to 60 minutes viewing the structure and the surrounding streetscape.

When to Visit

Visiting during weekday business hours allows you to see the building in the context of the city's professional activity. Like most areas in downtown São Paulo, the district becomes very crowded during peak commuting hours. It is advisable to avoid the immediate area late at night.
