Today our tour was in SANTOS / SP, we visited the recently opened VALONGO PARK and enjoyed a cup of coffee at the COFFEE MUSEUM. Santos is a city in the state of São Paulo. The residents call themselves Santos. The municipality extends over 281.1 km² and had 433,311 inhabitants in the last census. The demographic density is 1,541.7 inhabitants per km² in the municipality’s territory. Neighboring the municipalities of São Vicente, Cubatão and Guarujá, Santos is located 35 km south east of Mauá. Located 9 meters above sea level, Santos has the following geographic coordinates: Latitude: 23° 57' 42'' South, Longitude: 46° 19' 56'' West. Santos is home to Serra do Mar State Park. Valongo Park, on the banks of the Port of Santos (SP) canal, was inaugurated on July 5/2024 with the delivery of the first stage of works, which had an investment of R$20 million from public-private partnerships. The space will have a total of 10 thousand m², but the part delivered will cover 2.4 thousand m². The section released to the public is in an area previously occupied by the ruins of warehouse 4 and in the space previously occupied by warehouses 5 and 6 - which no longer existed. There, residents and tourists will come across a covered, air-conditioned structure, where there will be a stage for shows and snack bars; a 32-meter-high Ferris wheel; an observation pier; a floating platform for 14 vessels; a sports area and playground. How to get there: Access to the Park will be via walkways. The first, already released, is next to the Federal Revenue Office in Santos, at Praça da República. We really enjoyed the tour and recommend it for all ages. Good entertainment to everyone.
