Vila Mariana (pron. IPA: ['vila maɾi'ɐna]) is a borough of the city of São Paulo, Brazil. Like Pinheiros, it's a wealthy area.

Until the early 20th century, it used to be a stop for chariots and horse riders on the way to Jabaquara from the central area of Sao Paulo. The whole trip would take an entire day, but now it is comutable by car within less than 30min.
