    It can be said that it is one of the main tourist and historical sights of Campinas. It is a water tower with a belvedere at the top located in one of the highest points of the city, allowing you to see several neighborhoods around. If you are meeting Campinas and have the time, it's worth knowing. Entrance is free. Accessibility: there is no entrance for wheelchair users.

    This an old building that have a water tank and is localized in a place at a high part of the city. Climbing to the top by a staircase we can see several parts of the city of Campinas-SP. In the neighborhood there are several restaurants and various types of shops such as pharmacies, clothing stores, domestic utensils etc.
