I wish all neighborhood in the town had a nice park like that. The garden is fairly well maintained. It is usually difficult to find parking places around its area during the business hours, but easy in the evenings. Usually 7 am or 7 pm are the busiest times to walk or practice sports on the park. The park has swing and other plaything for kids and equipment for adults sports

All the usual shops. All major fast food restaurants.
Movie theater with 6 very comfortable rooms. The best ones in town, actually. BUT, if you want to watch a movie in english, you will have a hard time finding one here. For that, go to another smaller mall, Shopping Colinas, with 12 rooms for a more 'educated' crowd. There, only some movies will be in portuguese. Always check for the audio language before buying your ticket in Brazil.
Well, back to this mall, there is plenty of paid parking space in the open. Bear that in mind when going there. This is a tropical country with very high temperatures. When you come back to your car open doors and windows and do not go inside for a minute. It will be worth it.

Nice place seeping with Brazilian Aerospace History ! It was interesting to see a passenger car made fully of Bamboo, which is quite unique. I was there in June 2012, to attend a three day Aerospace conference. There may be restrictions for entry of common people, since it is located inside an area manned by Military Police, but Brazilian citizens may get an easy entry.

Fui conhecer a Biblioteca e seu aspécto é muito bonito, bem ordenado toda ela feita em mezaninos, vários Andares e fechadas com vidro para melhor conservar o acervo. Funciona as mil maravilhas, peguei uma revista de 1951 contando a história de São José dos Campos daquela época

Eu adorei o parque , tudo muito perto, água limpa e lugar limpo . Eu apenas achei ruim o fato da lista enorme de restrição dentro do parque , fazendo com quem precisemos sair toda hora pra pegar as coisas nos armários .
Poderia ter mas sugestao de almoço .
