I have no religion and I do not believe in anything. However, every single time I find myself near this place I I pay a visit. It beautiful inside, you get a break from the craziness outside and you get some protection from the elements. Lots of nice pieces to see, and this is one of the most iconic religious sites in São Paulo, so if you have got even a passing interest in beautiful churches, you would do great to come here.

A must see. It rivals the most grand you would see in Europe. Just stunning. I came to the Sunday mass for the chanting but it was less chanting and more traditional mass singing. Maybe they have the chants at a different time. We came early to sit in front and people were standing all around the sides by the start of service. We also picked up some cookies and a bread cake from the bakery. High recommend.

Beautiful holy place to go pray and meditate!!!!

Beautiful!!!! One of the most beautiful churchs in brazil

Very pretty venue. It’s nicer on the inside than what seems from outside.

A beautiful church, a historical building, a piece of magnificent art and religious architecture. A place to visit. Public transportation available.

Nice peaceful church to visit. Beautiful inside. Historic.

It's the place where Bento XVI stayed when he visited Sao Paulo. It's easy to get there by subway and the mass on Sunday at 10am is great. There is a page on Instagram @brunchnomosteiro where you can make a reservation for a brunch after the mass. They also sell religious items and fresh baked bread but they don't accept cards. Only Cash. I highly recommend the visit. ☆☆☆☆☆

I love to go there from time to time. Extremely charming interiors and a real peaceful emotion. The community of monks praying several times a day gives the opportunity to joint them and to enter their quiet existence of praise. Pope Benedict XVI stayed here during his visit in Brazil in 2007. Recommended to tourists and do not forget the Sao Bento bread!

(Translated by Google) The hidden Basilica Nossa Senhora da Assunção - Monastery of São Bento, is one of the most beautiful churches in São Paulo and is next to the elite São Bento school. Those who visit the basilica can go to the entrance and buy products made by the monks. Although they are quite expensive, the appearance of the products is very appetizing. I arrived at the place on the 25th of March, but the access can be done by the metro São Bento and by the metro da Sé, if you like to walk more. (Original) A escondida Basílica Nossa Senhora da Assunção - Mosteiro de São Bento, é uma das mais belas igrejas de São Paulo e fica junto ao colégio de elite São Bento. Aqueles que visitam a basílica podem ir até a entrada e comprar produtos feitos pelos monges. Apesar de serem bem caros, a aparência dos produtos é muito apetitosa. Cheguei ao local pela 25 de março, mas o acesso pode ser feito pelo metro São Bento e pelo metro da Sé, se gostar de andar mais.

(Translated by Google) Unique Church, Divine experience I feel in the lap of God, the Tridentine Mass is wonderful, I have never seen anything like it, I feel I am beside God .The choir, the Latin Mass, the pipe organs ... in short, it is heaven on earth???

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place, with Tridentine Mass and a lot of respect for Catholic Tradition. It lives up to what Saint Thomas Aquinas says: “those things that are pleasing to the eye are said to be beautiful” (Summa Teológica I, q. 5, a. 4, ad 1); pleases to the point of leaving ecstatic. (Original) Lugar belíssimo, com Missa Tridentina e bastante respeito à Tradição Católica. Faz jus ao que diz Santo Tomás de Aquino: “são ditas belas aquelas coisas que agradam a visão” (Suma Teológica I, q. 5, a. 4, ad 1); agrada a ponto de deixar em êxtase.

The church is painted... coming from Europe, it is not so often we can enjoy such a place. I had a real peaceful moment for my heart for my eyes :)
