Morrinho do GRU

The best-known São Paulo spotting position, a raised mound overlooking Guarulhos with a broad view of the airfield. Not a scenic park - it is functional and plain - but the vantage point is good and you can spend hours here. Open at all hours, though daytime is the sensible choice.
