Congonias Airport

Description:

Brazilian Congonhas Airport is just 8 kilometers from the city center of São Paulo. It is considered the second busiest airport in Brazil and is located in the Campo Belo area.

The history of the airport dates back to 1919, when its construction was planned. However, it was only realized in 1936. On September 12 of the same year, the airport was officially opened and began to receive passengers.

Until 1985, Congonhas was the city’s main airport.

The central hall in the passenger terminal can be called one of the best examples of modern architecture of the city of São Paulo.
