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 are no beaches in Sao Paulo there are places along the coast of Sao Paulo State. Rainfall is abundant, especially in the warmer months. One of the biggest financial centers of Brazil and the world. São Paulo is the most ethnically diverse city of Brazil.
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. ...

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 ... ...traveller, I wouldnt go to a mc donalds or pizza hut, there are many reastaurants all over the palce where you pay what your plate weight..you can eat loads, have a couple of drinks for about 2 pounds. the best restaurants are the italkians in bexiga, but ther are japanese, greek, french, all sorts...For the nighttime if you have money to spend, go to vila olímpia or vila mariana. These are 2 regions full of nightclubs and bars as well and the nightlife ...

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 ... ...I do not remember the name of. After you have had your nice meal, you can go out in a disco or a club, it is not very cheap, I always paid at least 10 dollars, but this is the price you have to pay to go somewhere where there are nice people. It is amazing, Paulistas are able to spend the night until 4 pm out, go back, sleep a couple of hours and go to work. My friends did this for 3 days in a row and did not really show it! ...

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 ...

Advantages: Attendance, atmosphere, staff, facilities, friendliness. Disadvantages: The localization.
to wander in the streets at night. This isn't quite a reference since you can't really find a "safe" place to go to or visit, even in busy streets/avenues with lots of commerce, stores, malls, muggings do happen.
Anyway, SãoPaulo still is much less 'worse' than Rio de Janeiro where drug wars are keeping 24 x 7.
To anyone coming to SãoPaulo: it's worth a try. ...
Advantages: Another action-packed race with unpredictable results Disadvantages: Montoyas untimely demise
Inspired by a comment I got a while ago about me being on a par with Connoiser Haggler I have produced this from last years fun-filled, action-packed Brazilian GP from the Interlagos track in Sau Paulo in - yes you've guessed it - Brazil. What do you think?
After the glamorous surroundings of Australia and Malaysia, you hit the ground quite hard in Brazil. The South American country is extremely vast but very crowded and underveloped and this shows in the F1 host SaoPaulo. The track of Interlagos is renowned for it’s bumpy surface and it’s harshness on the unfit. 2000 saw the Brazilian body fined for constant problems including an advertising hording falling down, forcing the session to be stopped 3 times. It seems the track has many problems and hasn’t a good reputation. The only way the track is kept ...
Advantages: Produces great races. Disadvantages: Rough and ready circuit.

The fans will travel mostly from SaoPaulo, which is about ten miles north of the track, but they may not have the facilities that are provided at most F1 tracks around the world. The track is owned by the Brazilian government and then rented by the race organisers for the duration of the race meeting. This means that often the surrounding area looks more like a building site than the location of a premier sporting event. This can also lead to a lot of dust in the air, and this combined with the movement of the huge crowd often makes the circuit very dusty at the start of the race. As well the reduction in grip for the tyres, the muck on the track can get into the engine sidepods and block the air intakes. As the circuit is at quite a high altitude the air is already thinner and the cars need all the air they ...
