brazil são paulo

São Paulo is one of the world's largest cities, and the economic hub of the country. Towering skyscrapers dominate the skyline of this cosmopolitan city, set one and a half hours from the coast of the Atlantic.

The city is particularly renowned for its fabulous nightlife, with buzzing clubs and bars, concert venues and theatres. There are plenty of great places to dine, and everyone should experience eating in one of Brazil's famous churrascarias. São Paulo has become the international gateway to Brazil, with most flights from abroad landing in its airport. If nightlife is your thing, then spend a couple of days here when you arrive, if not then you'll move on to the first region you want to visit.
