Edifício Itália

This 46-floor skyscraper is a landmark in downtown São Paulo, standing 168 meters tall. Travelers visit the building primarily to access its upper levels for a high-altitude view of the city's urban landscape.

Getting There

The building is located within the central district of São Paulo. If you are staying in the city center, it is accessible via a short taxi ride or a walk of approximately 10 to 15 minutes. For those arriving from São Paulo/Guarulhos International Airport (GRU), transport to the center typically takes 45 to 90 minutes depending on traffic.

Duration of Visit

Allow approximately 1 to 2 hours for a visit. This provides enough time to ascend to the observation areas and view the city from the top.
