Edifício Italia
Edifício Itália
A 46-storey city-centre landmark whose rooftop Italian restaurant and terrace offer 360-degree views over São Paulo's concrete forest.
Completed in 1965 and about 165 metres tall, it was once São Paulo's tallest building. The rooftop Terraço Itália restaurant and bar offers the city's most classic panorama: on one side the wavy curves of the Copan building, on the other an endless sea of high-rises. Full restaurant meals are not cheap, so an afternoon coffee or afternoon tea is the better deal, and smart dress is recommended. Terrace access and charges change from time to time, so check before you go. It sits beside República Square, about a 3-minute walk from República metro station, and pairs well with a visit to the Copan building.
Opening hours
Approx. 12:00–24:00 (per restaurant hours)
