The best way to get to know the city is to go by car since all the tours are far from each other and also far from the tourist center, but be careful if you go in the winter season, be prepared because you may face a bit of traffic and parking difficulties as the city is very crowded . It's because of a curiosity that Campos do Jordão is the lowest city in Brazil, we are at 1600 m altitude and here in the summer it doesn't go much above 25 degrees and in the winter it can reach close to zero at night, the lowest temperature ever recorded here in Campos in recent times, right, not in the past, but in recent times in 2009 it was Men [Music] 3.

Sapucaí, we've already made a video about São Bento here on the channel, it's worth watching, we'll leave it on the card up here and if you have time, take a trip back to São Bento to see Pedra do Baú, which is the most beautiful thing.

This one is the Tarundu park, which is super famous here in Campos de Jordão . all ages we're going to take a stroll and show you some attractions Let's go [Music] there [Music] the guy is going to rescue him from drowning in the ball pit that's when Tarundu park opens every day and you can just pay the entrance fee for R55 and inside the attractions These are the parts These are the prices for each one, pause the video to watch it calmly or you can buy the passport which already includes the entrance and gives access to several games the full passport is the most complete it gives you access to everything and costs R 414 per person there is also a restaurant that serves dishes from 78 euros the price of entrance fees already includes parking and luggage storage here there are some Indoor options too which are here inside this house so there is archery There is a really cool part for children which is quite big so the playground is completely closed and there is also ice skating which we are super curious to do eh but this is cool because if it starts to rain just now it starts to rain We even run here because here the other attractions that are outdoors still work, some of them stop when it rains but here it doesn't continue here so here's a tip if you come if it's a rainy day in Campus do Jordão you can come here and pay for the free attractions go in alone and in one or the other you don't need to pay for the entire passport [Music] next to Tarundu is Estação toriba a snack bar that serves delicious sandwiches inside a 1920s train carriage the experience is really cool and the the view from there is [Music] [Applause] [Music] beautiful this is the loving park people nice place it's peaceful in here it's super big there are more than 60,000 M which are 700 different species of plants in here so each place has a different garden there's even a labyrinth that we entered we almost got lost we spent a long time in there running around But it's very nice very tasty the visit is a really cool tour to do here in Campos it's worth booking half period to enjoy the park calmly and get to know all the gardens because there really are a lot of them but be careful this walk requires a bit of walking, nothing too steep but there are some uphill sections so for those who have mobility difficulties it might be a little more [Music] [Applause] [Music] difficult [Music] And speaking of beautiful gardens for those who go to Campos between the months of July and September the tip is to visit Parque das Cerejeiras which is when the place is covered in pink flowers there Inside there is a 120,000 m Oriental Garden with elements of Japanese culture and hundreds of cherry trees that, when they bloom, make everything more beautiful for those who love a well-made pizza. Just like us, the Arte da Pizza restaurant is a great option for dinner in Campos do Jordão, it is located inside the Grande Hotel Senac, so everything there is made by gastronomy and hospitality students, the pizzas are wonderful and we are picky when it comes to eating pizza, you know, but the experience there becomes even cooler because the kitchen is open so we can see the staff doing all the steps from opening the dough and fillings to the moment they take it to the oven and take it out to [Music] serve, they have a menu a wide range of savory and sweet pizzas as well as very delicious desserts, pizzas also cost from R96, now a tip it's important to book especially if you go in the winter season because the restaurant is super [Music] busy [Music] another interesting place is the dish shower it's a very urbanized waterfall so don't expect a lot of contact with nature but the place is beautiful Entry is free but they kind of force you to take some photos so you can buy them if you want at the end But regardless of that you You can walk along the walkways and take a photo with your own cell phone in the middle of the waterfalls and also take a look at the knitwear and handicraft shops that are around [Music] few people know there but one third of the area in the municipality of Campos do Jordão is occupied by the Campus do Jordão State Park also known as Orto Florestal it has more than 8000 hectares of preserved forest and is 15 km from the center of Campos there are five trails with levels of difficulty different ones that can be done by children, adults and even the elderly as not all of them require a lot of physical preparation, in addition to the trails, the or also has attractions such as tree climbing, zip lines, bike rentals, small trains, pedal boats, super cute cafes, food trucks, restaurants, picnic tables, crafts stores, etc.

Itapeva has a little street with some stalls and a panoramic view as beautiful as here that you don't pay anything PR to look at you don't pay anything to park you have the same [Music] View [Music] on the way to Pico do Itapeva there is this space here which is Prana Park in fact Prana Park is here the entrance is further there and here is Prana Café the two spots have incredible sunsets I don't know how to say the plural of this but they are incredible You can see the view back here you can see Pedra do Baú it's super beautiful you can see a lot of mountains so it's a very beautiful place if you saw it at sunset we preferred to come at lunch time so much so that we don't go to prana Park that's where that bike is there has two lines so people ride bikes in the middle it's very beautiful there are several attractions and such but we came here for lunch at prana café to enter here it costs R$ 5 but with consumption already for you to consume Here at the restaurant, during the day at lunchtime, if it's at sunset you pay R$40 for entry and then without the purchase, just the entrance and consumption, you can buy it here at the quiet bar and you can see Porto S here in the background, which is the most wonderful thing there at Prana Park. You pay, if I'm not mistaken, it's R$0 to enter .
