How to convert the hexa code to text in python

Question

I have this string which I get from web scrapping. I want to convert this hex code to normal text. I use encode("utf-8")still it is not working

text = 'Hospital Nossa Senhora da Conceição, Porto Alegre, Brazil,Hospital de Base São José do Rio Preto, São José Do Rio Preto, Brazil'
text = text.encode("ut-8") 

The expected output must be Hospital Nossa Senhora da Conceição, Porto Alegre, Brazil, Hospital de Base São José do Rio Preto, São José Do Rio Preto

I also tried

text.encode('utf-8').decode('unicode-escape')

but still it is not working. Could anyone help in this?

Apply html — HyperText Markup Language support.

This module defines utilities to manipulate HTML.

…

html.unescape(s)

Convert all named and numeric character references (e.g. >, >, >) in the string s to the corresponding Unicode characters. This function uses the rules defined by the HTML 5 standard for both valid and invalid character references, and the list of HTML 5 named character references.

New in version 3.4.

import html

text = 'Hospital Nossa Senhora da Conceição, Porto Alegre, Brazil,Hospital de Base São José do Rio Preto, São José Do Rio Preto, Brazil'
unescaped_text = html.unescape(text)
print( unescaped_text)

Output: .\SO\72657237.py

Hospital Nossa Senhora da Conceição, Porto Alegre, Brazil,Hospital de Base São José do Rio Preto, São José Do Rio Preto, Brazil
