Car Rental at 'Sao Paulo - Barra Funda - Terminal Rodoviario'

The largest city of Brazil can boast of having several masterpieces of modern architecture within its territory. One of such landmarks is the Hotel Unique, built according to the project of Joao Armentano and Rui Ohtake. They received several architectural awards for their creation. The curved shape gives the building originality, and its porthole windows it reminds you of an ocean liner – it was this building that inspired the architects. The Edifício Martinelli building is a notable one. It is the first skyscraper built in Brazil and this happened in 1934 (the construction began in 1922). The building has twelve floors. This high-rise is named in honor of the architect Giuseppe Martinelli, who designed it.

Another modern building is the Edificio Italia skyscraper with its wonderful architecture, which is 165 meters high. The high-rise building was erected in 1965 by architect Franz Heep. Today it comes second in the list of the tallest buildings in São Paulo (the first one is Mirante do Vale, which is just 5 meters taller than Edificio Italia). Office spaces are located inside the building, and on the 41st floor is the restaurant famous even outside Brazil, the Terraço Itália with gorgeous views of the city. There is the Sala São Paulo on the same floor; cultural events often take place here. The monumental auto trek, Autódromo José Carlos Pace, is interesting for tourists – this is the venue for the large-scale sporting event, Grande Prêmio do Brasil de Fórmula 1.
