Tremembé is the northernmost district in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. Tremembé borders the municipality of Mairiporã and encompasses part of the Serra da Cantareira

Etymology

The name Tremembé or Tupi(Swampy) originates from an Indigenous group historically located in Brazil, known for their skills in swimming and warfare. The tribe was largely displaced due to colonization, but the name persists to the area's cultural roots.[1][2]
