Josiah Wadsack: A significant site in the history of Brazil, though rather dissapointing as a museum. The "Bras Hostelry" housed incoming immigrants before heading inland to work on the coffee plantations (late 19th, early 20th cent). Most of the facility is now a homeless shelter, with a few rooms used for exhibits. The old train depot (where immigrants departed for their new plantation lives) has an overpriced tourist train. The highlight is some furniture and documents from the immigration era, including the registration book for new arrivals. There's also some fascinating photographs of immigrants processing through the small train depot, plus a large wall fresco with rules and instructions in Italian. However, the exhibits are rather surface level and some panels are so poorly lit you need your phone flashlight to read them. Read up about the site before visiting. Very much recommend a visit if you're interested in Brazil's immigration history.

Andrea Albanese: One of the best museum in Brasil. Modern permanent exposition with a beautiful reconstruction using video mapping. I did the internal steam train experience, rally interesting.

daisy cheng: I visited there on Sunday at 16:00 and therefore a little bit rush, they have a train cost R$40 for 30mins, it was nice. The museum is related to the history of Brazilian immigrants. The building was a hospital.

Pa Coo: The main exhibition is closed right now. There are two temporary exhibitions on either climate change or coffee machines but I came to learn about immigration in São Paulo, not climate change…
