Walk around in Jardins.
Go to MASP. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%A..._Museum_of_Art Go up in the Banespa or Italia buildings to view the skyscrapers.
Wander around in Liberdade, the Japanese neighborhood.
Go to the Pinacoteca museum. http://www.pinacoteca.org.br/pinacoteca-en/
Go to Vila Mariana or Vila Madalena.

On the "way back" layover, consider a day room at a hotel in the nearby town of Guarulhos, one with a pool and an airport shuttle.
Thanks!

How do I go around town to the places you mention above? Best to take cabs? Public transport available and/or safe?

Any recommendations for hotels near airports?
