City information

São Paulo is a city of 10,5 millions
inhabitants, 19 millions by counting the neighbourhoods, extends
over a surface of 1 493 km2. It is the industrial and commercial core of
Brazil, and one of the world biggest cities. You'll find the most
beautiful shops of the country, as well as the incomparable night-life
there, while savouring its cosmopolitanism. We meet here an
extraordinarily rich and mixed population.
The city also has cultural attractions, notably the MASP - Musee of Art,
(Museu de Arte de Sao Paulo), who shelters a collection of
impressionistic paintings of international fame (with works of Van Gogh
and Degas for example). You can see also: the Ibirapuera park, Alfa Real
Theater, Shopping Jardim Sul, Simba Safari and the old man Sao Paulo.
The subway, contains only three lines but it is fast and very clean.
The weather report is extraordinarily clement (warm and beautiful all
the time).
We eat really very well (the meat is delicious) and fresh fruit juices
are everywhere. Lemon trees, mangoes and banana trees push almost to the
wild state in the numerous gardens. Idem for the tropical, exuberant and
magnificent flowers.
