Aclimação Park
Aclimação Park (Portuguese: Parque da Aclimação) is a public leisure area located in the Aclimação district, in the central area of the Brazilian city of São Paulo. It opened on September 16, 1939, and covers an area of 112,000 square meters. It dates back to 1892, when Carlos Botelho decided to establish a garden on the site inspired by the Jardin d'Acclimatation in Paris. It was acquired by São Paulo City Hall in the 1930s. The park was listed as a protected area in 1986 by the Council for the Defense of Historical, Archaeological, Artistic and Tourist Heritage (Condephaat). It includes a lake with around 70,000 cubic meters of water, a Japanese garden with a water mirror, an acoustic shell, playgrounds, gym equipment, a jogging track and a walking track. The fauna counts around 111 species, including birds such as the southern lapwing, the shiny cowbird, the red ovenbird and the rufous-bellied thrush. The local vegetation has landscaped areas with native and exotic species, such as guanandi, jacaranda, an extensive eucalyptus grove and fruit trees.
