The city of Sertaozinho stands in southern Brazil, in the State of Sao Paulo. It's about 2 miles from the metropolis of Sao Paulo but just ten miles from the large city of Ribeirao Preto, which boasts attractions like the Pedro II Opera House, Coffee Museum and Fabio Barreto Zoo. The Doctor Leite Lopes Airport is at Ribeirao Preto. Hiring a car in Sertãozinho puts all this within easy reach. The university town of Jaboticabal to the west has an acclaimed history museum in an historic mansion and further to the east, Franca is well-known for its town square with vintage sundial.
With the biggest Christ the Redeemer statue in Brazil on the outskirts of the city, Sertãozinho visitors want to be able to get around and see things. If you hire a car when you go there you will be able to visit the statue and many other attractions. These include the old mill that now houses the National Sugar Museum, celebrating the city's sugarcane farming heritage. The Municipal Theatre has a busy program of performances and events. Also look out for the city's own museum and the popular shopping malls and local parks, like Gustavo Simioni Parque with its family-friendly sandy beach and restaurant.
