Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Parque Portugal is built around Taquaral Lake and conveniently located near the downtown area in the city of Campinas, SP. The highlight for many patrons is the wide, hard-packed, dirt walkway circumventing the lake. Shaded by a ring of trees, some close to a century old, the road is swept almost daily and offers a magnificent place for walking/running. Geese and water fowl often adorn the lakeshore. The facility encompasses a variety of leisure options such as: pedal boats, children's playground, small amphitheater for community events, a working streetcar, in-door gymnasium, outdoor courts, outdoor swimming pool, and even a full-sized replica of an old Portuguese galleon ship! Access is free to the public as is parking in several lots scattered around the perimeter. If you are looking for a great place to get in your daily steps, look no further!

This is a great park in a nice area of town. We've lived in Campinas for 9 years and this park just keeps getting better. Our kids would play in the sand park when they were little and the other parents were always friendly and fun to talk to. The track around the park is a great place to stroll or get a work out. One of our favorite things are the salty pastries (pastel) and Sugar Cane juice for lunch. So many other things to do and see, check it out for yourself.

Parquet Portugal is a beautiful place to go for a walk or even go jogging around the lake. You can also take a ride in a small boat but that requires you as the engine. There are some birds in cages. Also there are little shops where you can buy food. I always take a stroll when I’m in the neighborhood.

If you are in Campinas, you should visit this spot: it's quiet and you will have some options to do like drink a coco water, walking, cycling or just sit and look around.
traffic jam from 5pm to 8pm.

It may not compare with the other city parks around the world, but that is the place to see and enjoy while in Campinas. You can choose to walk or run around it, or just sit under the many trees, grab a snack on the many tents around it or simply breath its fresh air. It can be very crowded on the week-ends and on some special events.

Most people in Campinas call this park just "taquaral". If you somehow end up in Campinas but don't get to tour the rest of the country then go to Taquaral and walk through the little paths in the forest. The forest in this park is eerily similar to the amazon.
There are lots of vendors around the entrances to eat and drink things. The road closest to the park is closed on Sundays to let people walk around the park. There are also really scenic paths inside the park where you can jog. There are tons of stray cats and ducks as well.

Não, pelo ao contrário lado oposto, o parque, fica no Taquaral , e fácil de chegar, acredito que a maioria das pessoas que transita pelo centro ou próximo ao centro saiba indicar como chegar lá.

O pedalinho a barca e o trem são pagos? Qnts? Eles são abertos ao final de semana ? (Sabado)

Oi Thamiris, os brinquedos ficam aberto aos sábados, mas, sinceramente, a manutenção do parque está em péssimo estado. É uma pena, uma vez que a cidade oferece poucos espaços ao ar livre para crianças. Visite o Bosque dos Jequitibás que está em melhores condições.

A embarcação é réplica da nau "Anunciação" que trouxe Pedro Álvares Cabral às terras brasileiras em 1500. O "Bondinho" e o "pedalinho" tem um custo de aproximado de R$ 5,10 por pessoa.

O Parque não tem aluguel de bicicletas, mas ao redor tem sim comerciantes que oferecem este serviço. Só perguntar em alguma barraca que te indicam. Última vez que minha filha alugou (faz 1 ano) saiu por R$ 10,00 por tempo indeterminado.
