Review of São Paulo by
Nazuku
Advantages: São Paulo
Disadvantages: São Paulo
The city of São Paulo officially became a city in 1711. In the 19th century, it experienced a lot of economic prosperity, brought about by coffee exports, which were shipped abroad from the port of the neighbouring city of Santos. It is one of the big 5 cities that exist in the world. It is the business centre of Brazil and, has many of the down sides of any big city: São Paulo is located on a plateau that is part of the Serra do Mar. Although there ...

Poverty Vs Effuency
Review of São Paulo by
andycharger
Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Dirty
Sao Paulo is a strange city. It is home to the multi million pound grand prix circus that visits Brazil once a year. Yet next to the Sao Paulo circuit's glitz and glamour lies the poverty of the shanty towns that make up the majority of the city. Here people are begging and struggling to feed their families in one of the fastest growing civilisations in the world. People often think of the Rio carnival when they talk of Brazil or the lavely beaches. ...

The city of the contrasts
Review of São Paulo by
mairagaluzio
Advantages: variety
Disadvantages: pickpockets
São Paulo is one of the biggest cities of the world. Being like that, with so many people, its natural that there is more violence and robbery than in the small, quiet countryside villages. Thats´s obvious, and its a pity people who only see pollution and robberies and poverties in sao paulo. It is yes, a city of contrasts, i agree, but there are much more things to do. and you dont need to be rich to have fun in São paulo. there are restaurants for ...

Many restaurants
Review of São Paulo by
FRADUC
Advantages: Many restaurants
Disadvantages: Pollution and traffic
Sao Paolo is the biggest city in Brazil, but it is not the capital, as many
>people think. It is a metropolis with people from different origin, and there
>are many Asian descendents too. This blend of origins and cultures makes it an
>interesting place in terms of restaurants. Sao Paolo is also the largest
>financial centre in South America, still, there are shantytowns and poor
>people in the streets. In summer Sao Paolo is better avoided due ...

Amazingly good food and night life
Review of São Paulo by
CICLISTALOCO
Advantages: Good food
Disadvantages: Some assalts here and there
San Paulo is the largest city in Brazil and also South America. You may think that Brazilians like to stay in the sun and do nothing, but not in San Paolo. They work a lot there and the pollution is very bad. The best thing to do for me in Sampa (San Paulo) is to go out at the restaurant, you have restaurants for each kind of cuisine. My favourite is Porcao, which is actually a Brazilian one, but you can have different food, try in Bisciga the Italian ...

Larger than some of the South American states
Review of São Paulo by
NATALIA70
Advantages: Variety of people
Disadvantages: Pollution
Sao Paolo is huge. I visited the Museum of Art of Sao Paolo, MASP, situated in Avenida paulista. I also spent a lot of time in the area of Libertade, where the Japanese and Chinese immigrants are based. We stayed at Hotel Isei and visited some of the local restaurants. It gives you a funny feeling to hear all these Japanese and Chinese-looking people talking in Portuguese. One of the shopkeepers told me that his family had gone back to Japan, where ...
