São Paulo (Portuguese for Saint Paul) is the capital of the state of São Paulo in southeastern Brazil. It is located at 23°32′36″S, 46°37′59″W, 400 km (250 miles) from Rio de Janeiro, and 1,030 km (640 miles) from federal capital Brasília.

The city has an area of 1,523.0 square kilometres (588.0 sq. miles) [1] and a population of just over 11 million [2] (2006 IBGE estimate), which makes it the largest and most populous city in the Southern Hemisphere [2] and a global city.

Nineteen million people live in the greater São Paulo metropolitan area as defined by the government (Região Metropolitana) — making it one of the five most populous in the world. However, when the many adjacent metropolitan areas, such as Baixada Santista, São José dos Campos, Campinas, Sorocaba, etc. are included, such as in the Extended Metropolitan Area (Complexo Metropolitano Estendido) São Paulo, there are nearly 29 million inhabitants, more than any other city in the world except Tokyo with 35 million. (source: IBGE). The region forms an even larger urban corridor or megalopolis with Rio de Janeiro and Volta Redonda.

The state of São Paulo is also highly populated, however most metropolitan areas hug São Paulo with the exception of Ribeirão Preto. The entire state has a population of over 40 million.

People from the city of São Paulo are called paulistanos, while paulista designates anyone from the whole of São Paulo state, including the paulistanos.

History

The city was founded on January 25, 1554, by Portuguese Jesuit missionaries José de Anchieta and Manoel da Nóbrega, who established a mission — the Colégio de São Paulo de Piratininga — to convert the Tupi-Guarani Native Brazilians to the Catholic religion. Located just beyond the Serra do Mar cliffs overlooking the port city of Santos, and close to the River Tietê, the new settlement became the natural entrance to the vast and fertile plateau that would eventually become the State of São Paulo.

First named São Paulo de Piratininga, São Paulo officially became a city in 1711. It experienced a boom during the coffee cycle, starting in the late 19th century — chiefly because of its privileged position next to the port of Santos, through which most of the country's exports were shipped.

After 1881, waves of immigrants from Italy, Japan and many other countries arrived in São Paulo, at first to work at the enormous coffee plantations established in the State. In the 20th century, with the increasing industrial development of the country, many of them moved to São Paulo, which also attracted new contingents of immigrants.

São Paulo was home to the Bandeirantes, who were responsible for a great deal of territorial expansion of Brazil and the discovery of great wealth. There are several monuments honoring their history in the city, including the famous Monumento às Bandeiras, one of the symbols of São Paulo.

Another important historical landmark is the Universidade de São Paulo's Law School, also known as Largo São Francisco, claimed to be the first academic institution in Brazil. First installed into a monastery, it was founded on 1 March 1828, right after the beginning of the Brazilian Empire, following the increasing need for lawyers and politicians. As rich Brazilians used to go to Portugal to take undergraduate law courses, the Brazilian Emperor, Dom Pedro I, decided that it was time to create a national law school. It attracted students from all over the country, who gave São Paulo a bohemian lifestyle.

In 1972 a fire disaster occurred in Andraus Building and in 1974 in Joelma Building.


Geography

São Paulo is located on a plateau that is part of the Serra do Mar (Portuguese for "Maritime Range"), itself part of the vast region known as the Brazilian Highlands, with an average elevation around 800m (2,625 ft) - though at a distance of only about 70 km (40mi) from the Atlantic Ocean. This distance is covered by two highways (Anchieta and Imigrantes, see "Transportation" section below) that roll down the range, leading to the port city of Santos and the beach resort of Guarujá. Because of such setting, rolling terrain prevails within the urbanized areas of São Paulo. To the north, the Serra da Cantareira (Cantareira Range) offers higher elevations and a sizable remnant of the Atlantic Rain Forest. The whole region is very tectonically stable, and no significant seismic activity has ever been recorded.

The Tietê River was once a source of freshwater and recreation for São Paulo. However, in the latter half of the 20th century, like its tributary, the Pinheiros, it became grossly polluted by raw sewage and industrial effluents. A substantial clean-up program for both rivers has met with some success. Neither is navigable in the stretch that flows through the city, but transportation is important on the Tietê further downstream, as the river is part of the River Plate basin.

There are no large natural lakes in the region, but the Guarapiranga and Billings reservoirs are used for power generation, water storage, and recreation.

The original flora consisted mainly of a great variety of broadleaf evergreens. Today, non-native species are common, as the mild climate and abundant rainfall permit a multitude of tropical, subtropical and temperate plants to be cultivated, with eucalyptus being especially ubiquitous.

Climate

Though thought of as drizzly and rather cool by some Brazilians, São Paulo's climate is by world standards actually warm and mild. The temperature ranges are comparable to such cities as Los Angeles and Mexico City, which are renowned for their pleasant climate. Summer temperatures seldom reach 30°C (86°F), and frost is extremely rare. All-time record temperatures are 38°C (100°F) and -2°C (28°F),. Rainfall is abundant, especially in the warmer months. Snow was register one time in 1918, tropical cyclones, while tornadic activity is uncommon

Metropolitan region

São Paulo is officially inserted in a larger metropolitan region named "Grande São Paulo" ("Greater São Paulo"). The region holds, in total, 39 municipalities and a population of more than 19 million (as of 2005 according to IBGE).

Economy

São Paulo is the financial and industrial centre of Brazil. The city is considered to headquarter more German companies than any other single city outside Germany. Likewise, it is also considered to headquarter more American companies among any other city outside the United States. São Paulo's GDP is around $500,000 million, which makes it one of the richest cities in the world.

There are a number of highly specialised regions, like Bom Retiro and Brás (wholesale garment districts), Consolação (lighting equipment), Rua Santa Ifigênia (electrical and electronic parts), Rua Teodoro Sampaio (furniture and musical equipment), the posh Rua Oscar Freire (designer and label stores), Avenida Europa (automobiles) and the crowded Rua Vinte e Cinco de Março. São Paulo is also home to a large number of advertising and broadcasting companies.

In the last few years, São Paulo has become a major home to many international events and fairs, visited by the most varied audiences, ranging from scientists and artists to merchants and entrepreneurs, coming from Brazil and also abroad.

São Paulo has significant ethnic diversity in comparison to other major cities:


3,000,000 people are direct or indirect descendants of Portuguese.
3,000,000 are direct or indirect descendants of Italians. There is a building named Edifício Itália (Italy Building), in honor of the Italians. It was once the tallest building of the city (165m).
1,500,000 people have direct or indirect African ancestry.
1,000,000 people are direct or indirect descendants of Germans.
850,000 people are direct or indirect descendants of Lebanese immigrants— by far the largest number of Lebanese outside Lebanon.

Sights of Interest

São Paulo is a major cultural centre. The city has an ethnically deiverse metropolitan area, with heavy Italian, Spaniard, Portuguese, German, Arab and Japanese influences.

The city is known for its varied and sophisticated cuisine, ranging from Chinese to French, from fast food chains to five star restaurants. Other venues such as thousands of bars, pubs, lounges and discos cater to a variety of music tastes.

São Paulo is home to the University of São Paulo and the Federal University of São Paulo, as well as many other private colleges such as the Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo and Mackenzie Presbyterian University, the latter founded by North American missionaries; two major art museums (MASP and Pinacoteca do Estado), a major symphonic orchestra (OSESP), and a Formula One Grand Prix racing circuit (Interlagos).

There are two major airports in the São Paulo metropolitan area: Guarulhos (also known as Cumbica) (GRU, for domestic and international flights) and Congonhas (CGH, for domestic flights).

Transportation

The city is crossed by many of the most important roads of the country, such as the BR-116, SP-270, SP-280, Rodovia Anhangüera, Rodovia dos Bandeirantes, Rodovia Anchieta, Rodovia Castelo Branco and Rodovia dos Imigrantes. Some railways also cross the city. They are, however, very old and were constructed intending not to transport people, but to transport coffee to the Santos seaport. However, there are new projects to build new medium-high speed railway tracks from São Paulo to Rio de Janeiro (a project has been announced by the Brazilian government to build a high speed railway service in order to link the country's biggest cities, the trains would go as fast as 280 km/h, and would link São Paulo and Rio in about 1 hour and 30 minutes. These works are still waiting to be officially announced by the government, however some news has been heard on this matter), Campinas and to São Paulo-Guarulhos Airport. The other important project is the "Expresso Bandeirantes", that is a medium speed rail service (about 160 km/h) from São Paulo to Campinas, which would make the journey go from the hour and a half nowadays to about 50 minutes, linking São Paulo, Jundiaí, Campinas Airport, and Campinas city centre. This service is also going to be connected to the railway service that is going to link São Paulo city centre and Guarulhos Airport. Works on this last railway service between São Paulo city centre and Guarulhos Airport were announced to begin in 2007, which is going to be the beginning of the renewal of Brazilian passenger railway service.

São Paulo has three airports. In 2005, about 33 million people passed threw the city's airports (mainly from Congonhas and Guarulhos International, the only two operating commercial flights) São Paulo thus contains the most crowded air space both in Latin America and the Southern Hemisphere. Infraero, Brazil's main airport authority, predicts that with the new remodelling of Guarulhos Airport, within five years São Paulo's airports will handle about 45 million. There are also plans to expand the Campinas Viracopos Airport. Campinas is located about 90 km from São Paulo. In about 15 years, São Paulo-Campinas airspace will expand from the 34 million figure nowadays to 100 million. Congonhas Domestic Airport operates domestic and regional flights, mainly to Rio de Janeiro, Belo Horizonte and Brasília. Campo de Marte Airport handles some private and small airplanes. Guarulhos International Airport, known to paulistanos as "Cumbica", located 25 km north east from the city centre in the neighbouring city of Guarulhos, operates domestic and international flights.

São Paulo has the highest per capita helicopter ownership in the developing world and now rivals Tokyo and New York as the world's leading helicopter user. The owners are an elite wealthy class who take advantage of around one hundred helipads and heliports to conveniently avoid heavy traffic and to rise above contact with the more dangerous aspects of urban life.

The city has 60.5 km of underground railway systems (34.6 km fully underground) (the São Paulo Metro, locally known as the Metrô), with 4 lines in operation and 57 stations (33 underground), complemented by another 270 km of CPTM (Companhia de Trens Metropolitanos, or "Company of Metropolitan Trains") railways. Both CPTM and the underground railway lines carry some 3.5 million people on an average weekday, and a few new underground lines to be constructed are expected to add another million people to the system within the next five years. All the main projects from the São Paulo railway and underground system for the next 10 years can be found on the Portuguese pages of the Metrô and CPTM. The projects are said to expand the system from the current 330 km to more than 500 km on the next 10 years.

The bulk of the public transportation (public and private companies) is composed of approximately 17,000 buses, colored uniformily according to the non-central region served (ex.: light green for the buses that go center-southwest, dark blue for northern area). Until recently, there was a strong presence of informal transportation (dab vans), now fully legalized and operating under the same color scheme of the main system.

São Paulo grew quickly from the 1940s to the 1980s and many roads and buildings were constructed without major planning. As a result, heavy traffic is common in the main avenues of the city, and traffic jams are relatively common in its larger highways. The main means of commuting into the city is by car and by bus. An effective way of avoiding heavy vehicles traffic in the city, such as buses and trucks that crossed the city for other destinations, was planned by Mário Covas as a ring of road that circles the city, called Rodoanel Mario Covas, and is currently beeing built by DERSA.

Current critical problems

Since the beginning of the 20th century, São Paulo has been the major economic city of Brazil. With the arrival of the two World Wars and the Great Depression, exports of coffee to the United States and Europe were critically affected, which led the rich coffee farmers to invest in industrialisation in the city. This fact attracted many people from other regions of the country, especially from the north east. From a population of merely 32,000 inhabitants in 1880 São Paulo increased its population to approximately 250,000 in 1900, 1,800,000 in 1940, 4,750,000 in 1960 and 8,500,000 in 1980. The effects of this population boom in the city are:

São Paulo grew quickly and in a very disorganised manner. With no proper organisation the city grew without leaving much space for main roads and parks. Major traffic jams are relatively common on many roads of the city.
Due to heavy usage and poor engineering, the pavement quality on certain roads (especially in the outskirts of the city) is problematic, and potholes and other asphalt defects are common.
Approximately 830,000 people - about 5% of the population - live in shantytowns (favelas) in São Paulo and surrounding areas.
The crime rate is high, as is the rate of police brutality. The so-called PCC (Primeiro Comando da Capital or First Command of the Capital, in English) is a criminal faction whose terrorist attacks in May and in July 2006 shocked its citizens who were are already accustomed to high crime rates. However, the main target of these attacks are not citizens but police and government officials.
As a consequence of the lack of developed green spaces and the relative impermeability of the paved ground, floods are common in particular areas of São Paulo. Rain water cannot be properly drained and water accumulates quickly, causing floods mostly during the summer.
Air pollution is high. The two major rivers crossing the city, the Rio Tietê and the Rio Pinheiros, are severely polluted. A major project intended to clean up these rivers is underway, but complete success is not likely to be achieved for at least 14 years.
Although there are several parks across the city, given the size of the city the per capita green area of São Paulo is very small. This fact, associated with high crime rates, has led many paulistanos to choose to live in gated communities or high-rise secured condominiums.

SP is a spectacular city. As a guy who lives just 120km far from SP and visited the city so many times, I can say its so much more impressive than we can see in photos...

What's the real reason they dont allow buildings to be higher than 170 meters?

P.S.
Sao Paulo is ridiculous.

the problem is not the 170m, even though the tallest one has 189!!!!

The limit is according to the terrain area....and i agree with it because sao paulo doesnt have a good mass transportation system...and a lot of traffic....

its mostly urban reasons


Why do you think is ridiculous?

ridiculous in what sense? Like... ridiculous big?

As in very good, cool, awesome, dope, bueno, nice.. ect.. :clown:

Wich team?

SP has several!!!!

São Paulo is a amazing city. Who have been living there by years don't know the city. Many things to discovery. São Paulo is a world.

Thank you. The photos are cool.

Good bye CHE, 50cents, Rationalcrazy, etc...

Wow, Sao Paulo looks great!! It looks like New York

sao paulo looks fab.

for to be exact, sao paulo looks poor N-Y

Sampa is NOT a poor NYC! Poor in which term? You think too monitary. Sao Paulo has a lot to offer (architecutre, museums, parks) and has one of the most fibrant nightlives and biggest culinary range. In know both cities quite well. They are compareable but there are clear certain differences. But I never dare to say Sampa is a poor NYC. I was in Queens, Brooklyn and the Bronx and it looks as suburban, boring and "poor" as the oustskirts of Sampa. Manhatten is NOT NYC. And it is not more or less impressive than the center of Sao Paulo - though it HAS actually the better museums ;)

All right, I think it´s time for me to repost my full set of São Paulo pics. São Paulo is MUCH MORE than anyone imagines. The names of the pics below tell what they are, mostly.... hope you appreciate!!!

THANKS KAUA AND MOPC!!!!

The best Thread ever!!!!!!

What's the real reason they dont allow buildings to be higher than 170 meters?

P.S.
Sao Paulo is ridiculous.

Where are you from? São Paulo is not ridiculous. Ridiculous, offensive and unjust is your commentary. Apartate, muchacho. :bash:

Good job, Gutoo, Kauã & Mopc. Congratulations. :)

ahahah!!

I thought so!!
but i was confused!!

thanks!!!

I really think this unperfect city so perfect...
I've already tried to live in another city but I missed São Paulo so much that I had to come back. But, of course, if I have a job opportunity with a REALLY high salary I'd try to change my mind. The human being is adaptable to all new situations.... hehe
Very nice shots!

Great pics Kauã!

São Paulo rulezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz :banana:

I have to visit this city, I just have to. Looks like a huge urban chaos, yet I just can't help being impressed and wanting to go to the place seing the pics

buena seleccion de fotos.

la increible ciudad de sao paulo, la mega latinoamericana.

:eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: :eek2: AWESOME!!!!!! :eek2: :eek2: :eek2:

Earlier, someone compared New York City to Sao Paulo. Here are some numbers I got off www.emporis.com

New York City:
--------------
Population: City= 8,104,079 Metro= 21,858,830

Area: 800 sq. km or 309 sq. mi

High-rises: 5,895


Sao Paulo:
----------

Population: City= 10,600,060 Metro= 18,390,777

Area: 1,525 sq. km or 589 sq. mi

High-rises: 3,823

-------------------------------- :)

Yes, they are very close. :)

Very nice pictures! :)

Good numbers - Metro reached this year 19mio but the pop is also more or less stagnating. Skyscrapers: one of the highest density of u/c highrises, so I guess it changes from one week to the other :lol:

Amazing! I love the cathedral, looks like if it was taken from Copenhagen!

Thanks :)
Well, the cathedral is surely one thing I DON'T like in São Paulo... A Gothic cathedral with a dome???!!!

^^ Oh, BTW, great job!!! Lots of good pics!

Great pictures of São Paulo :eek:

Sao Paulo is just amazing

Well, the cathedral is surely one thing I DON'T like in São Paulo... A Gothic cathedral with a dome???!!!

Thats old, but the cathedral is NOT gothical! It is a neo-gothic cathedral!

I like the Cathedral and I was glad to hear that the Square where it's located is being totally renovated now.

Thanks for the pics, guys, this city is just INCREDIBLY HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!!!

Earlier, someone compared New York City to Sao Paulo. Here are some numbers I got off www.emporis.com


Sao Paulo:
----------

Population: City= 10,600,060 Metro= 18,390,777

Area: 1,525 sq. km or 589 sq. mi

High-rises: 3,823

-------------------------------- :)



that area figure is for municipalities, not urban area. The urban area actually is smaller.

As for number of highrises, São Paulo numbers are extremely incomplete. There are an estimated 30 thousand highrises in the city, albeit none taller than 180 meters. The brazilian editors at Emporis actually post here at SSC and they confess they only added the most famous and the newest highrises. The vast majority of highrises in São Paulo is still uncounted. The forumer Cello once got a list directly from the São Paulo city hall urbanism offices with all buildings over 12 floors, and there were over 40 thousand buildings.

It must be one of those cities you need to experience to actually like it, cos from the pictures it just looks messy and chaotic. The "skyscrapers" look basically all the same (from above they look like huge towers of concrete, and some weird antennas here and there), I personally don't find it appealing at all, it's not a place I would be interested in visiting.

^^

I do think Sao Paulo is a city to be experienced!! It feels so good when you are there... it's so special when you are walking on Paulista Avenue or in front of Banespa's tower and see the Martinelli building in a single stare... it feels like the whole world has passed by its avenues (and depending on the hour, you can actually "see" the whole world passing by (LOL), and helped to build the city!

It's amazing!

It's the concrete, steel and glass jungle, but it's also civilization!!! It's chaos, but it's also glory!

OMG!! 40.000 skyscrapers :eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2:
Amazing pictures. The buildings are not high at all, but 40k :eek2:

Here are some pics I took at Paulista Avenue, the main financial street of latin america!

Alou!

Bom, dia 23, quarta feira, amanheceu um dia LINDO aqui em SP, 11:30 da manha e ja estava quase 30ºC, aquele sol!!

Como não ia fazer nada resolvi ir à Paulista tirar umas fotos...

bem....para meu azar, assim que eu cheguei na paulista, o tempo fechou =[

Mas como já estava lá, resolvi tirar as fotos de qualquer jeito!

Algumas ficaram legais, mas a maioria saiu escura demais!

Algumas são de ângulos BEM conhecidos, mas eu tentei tirar fotos ineditas (se é que isso é possível).

Bom, como são 77 fotos, vou dividir em 2 Threads!

Bom, saí da Consolação e fui atééééé o shopping Paulista, depois do Sta Catarina, no começo da Paulista!

Bom, em geral eu não achei as fotos muito boas, tenho que voltar em um dia bonito!

Espero que gostem! Abraços!

I live 1 hour and 30 minutes away from São Paulo, and I can say you really need to experience the city to know it.
Everytime you visit it seems different, that crazy atmosphere, the chaotic traffic, everything is so huge...
And it's imense, so dense...

It's absolutely unique, everybody should know it...

I can't wait to live there.

I really love Sao Paulo. It's so amazing. It's not only a huge modern city but it's people are very nice as well. I'll be there some day.

The way this city dwarfs just about everywhere else is amazing - and it looks wonderful too! Great pics!

I'd like this city if it gets safer.

Yeah, it's very very sad of what is happening these days :( Altough it wouldn't affect you as a tourist too much. But you can't blame just the mafia alone for the situation. The prisons are extremly packed (90'000 Paulistanos are inprisoned in the whole state), the big drug- and gundealing centers and heads are inside and coordinate everything from there. Wardens are mostly ex-criminals as well (although after this scandal a few years ago, it changed a bit - but only a bit...) and as the police as a whole underpayed and therefore highly corruptive etc. I hope this revolts are not unheard in the politics and something changes finally - not only by pure repression, a second Carandiru-massacer is not the solution in the long run!

^^ Thanks god things are getting much better!

Sao Paulo is fabouloso! Has a unique charm of its own.

OMG!! 40.000 skyscrapers :eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2:
Amazing pictures. The buildings are not high at all, but 40k :eek2:

try to count :D

:eek2::eek2::eek2::eek2:

the last pics show the city from the standpoint of someone close to its extreme north; photos from the standpoint of someone located in the extreme southern quarters of São Paulo would be a lot more impressive, since they would show an area 3 times bigger than the one covered by these pics.

i think sp looks better than nyc, it has tht Hott latino feel to it

To understand São Paulo, you have to be there....
When you are there, you fell what is being in a megalopolis.

Sao Paulo looks amazing!

lovely sao paulo :)

such an impressive city! the name megalopolis is "fair" for the city in question :yes:

someday i'll go there... and i'll go know the city with the creator of this thread :lol: uhuhuhu

someone have lots of photos of the biggest sao paulo shoppingMall?

does any one have pictures of the Daslu shooping center I heard about it in a magazine and it sounded cool

Wow that last photo is very impressive, a big sea of skyscrapers

does any one have pictures of the Daslu shooping center I heard about it in a magazine and it sounded cool

You can only get in by car or helicopter, and the parking lot costs 30 dollars!

I've been to Daslu-its definitely one of the most chic stores in the world

Sao Paulo has always fascinating me! If I wasn't born in the US I wish I would've liked to be born in Brazil, not even Panama but Brazil.

Ever heard of Daspu? ;) Is there already a store in Sampa?

Ever heard of Daspu? ;) Is there already a store in Sampa?

I dont think so, but I know that Daslu, the very rich-golden-diamond-deluxe-mega-marytheresian-vip store goes very very bad. Many of the rich marks like Prada, Gucci and Armani stopped selling stuff in the store.

^^ Yes, thats true! But that doenst mean that the luxury market its going down in Brazil.

What a good thread!! thanks!!!!! :cheers1:

Amazing looking city, but I do have one observation. I always hear on these forums that Sao Paolo is majority white. I don't know if these photos are representative, but that city definitely does NOT look majority white. Lots of those people look mixed, but not white. I am mixed and I am also sick and tired of mixed people trying to pass off as white so they can feel better about themselves and therefore can lower their dosage of daily prozac. Beautiful PEOPLE by the way. PS I've seen threads of Madrid and Rome, now those people are white, so don't give me the (Americans think only Northern Europeans are white crap).

I can never get enough pix of SP! I just love that city to bits!
Hey gutooo and the rest of you, check out my photothread from Toronto neighbourhoods. Just posted an area called Little India, but there are lots of Brasil related photos in the thread from World Cup celebrations! Cheers everyone, and a big Obrigado to one of my favourite cities in the world! :)
ps if you visit, please leave a comment! Thanks!

"Segundo projeções do IBGE para 1980, 72,1% da população residente do Município de São Paulo era composta por brancos, ao passo que os negros (pretos e pardos) totalizavam 24,6%."

That means that 72,1% of the population is white and 24,6% of the population is black or mixed.

The native percent is really really low!

Those numbers are from 1980, im pretty sure nothing changed because i have a table from the populartion of the state, and the numbers are pretty close:

LOL..when I was there, you could go to the men's clothing section and the auto sales area, but men are not allowed in the other parts of the store.

This Parque Cidade Jardim is UGLY! :( Some art deco buildings on top of a neo classicistic palace - what a horrible taste, sorry. Then I even prefer Robocop and the Eletrobras skelleton!

But, GUTOOO, you must remember that this IBGE research is biased.
When you are interviewed they ask you in which category do you fit, if you are slightly white, you´ll answer white. You can answer black, even if you are white!!

Unfortunately there isn´t another way to do this whithout being racist.

Yes, youre right! I have to agree with you!

But im quite sure that the majority of the population of São Paulo is white, I see much more white people than mixed or black. But, if you go to Sé Square at a tuesday on lunch time, youll see most mixed people!

Thats it!

i hope you like it!

bay_area and gutooo, thanks for the great Sampa pics!

Huge metropolis right there and much cleaner imo than Mexico City. Put some more people pictures in. I would like to see one picture in a common area of Sao Paolo where the majority of the people are white. Maybe in Porto Alegro or Curitiba but not Sao Paolo. Wild guess puts the City at .........
40% white and the country at........
30% white

Great pics!!

What do you mean? Why is it important if the pop is white??? Sao Paulo always was an immigrant city and therefore it is ver mixed. You won't find too many "whites" or "blacks" anymore, most of the pop is a genetical and cultural mixture and THAT is the special and positive thing about the city. There was no appartheit or other segregation. In the old times there were Portugueses and black slaves. After slavary was abandoned the plantation workers came mainly from Italy - the city started to grow. Later was immigration waves from Lebanon (more people with Lebanese ancestors live in Sao Paulo than in Beirut) and Eastern Europe, then a lot of Japanese settled down (1mio Paulistanos have Japanese roots!). Nowadays there it's especially Koreans who settle in the city - maybe one of the first groups that doesn't really integrate or mix with the local pop...

No wonder Sampa is the culinary capital of the world as well ;)

Marvelous pics. SP has so many faces like no one city in the world.

It is a real and human city. Nothing to compare to that fake cities all over China.

What's the real reason they dont allow buildings to be higher than 170 meters?

P.S.
Sao Paulo is ridiculous.


Ridiculous is pretending to be an american, being a CUCARACHA!!!

^^Hey, He already said, that this ridiculous was in a good way!

No fights :D

incredible density! great huge.

AWESOME!!
This city is HUGE!! :uh:
How much would it cost to spend one week there? American dollars? Are most businesses and attractions bi-lingual with English speaking?
And, finally, what is this building? A tourist attraction? Business? :?
http://img102.imageshack.us/img102/2945/2111mini4vg.png

^^ Steven: I really don´t know how much you would spend on a week here, it could be a lot depending where you want to stay, even more expensive, if you stay in the hotel in the picture, one of the best in Sampa City!

Most of the businesses and attractions are in portuguese only! I would say to you to bring a language guide or a dictionary :okay:

(i think its worthy)

What a great and complete thread! Wow! :eek2: :eek: Sao Paulo is along with Hong Kong, Tokyo and Shanghai the world's most impressive urban settlement!!!

Thanks cello!

:colgate:

huge, diverse, colorful, great city!

WOW, the diference between the colonial city in those old pictures and like it is today is incredble! It is just one example of why São Paulo was the city with the fastest growing rate in the whole world at the 20th century! ;)

^that goes only for the 50s and 60s ;)

THAT's development:

Those AWESOME aereals were posted in the brazilian forum!

Opa povo!! Tirei essas fotos na decolagem a partir do Campo de Marte. TERIA noturnas mas no dia (noite) em que cheguei estava tão impressionado com a cidade "pulsando", tantos carros, helicópteros, aviões, dirigível, luzes e flashes pra todo lado, ao mesmo tempo, que preferi curtir tudo a tentar tirar uma foto borrada com o balanço do avião...

Tenho algumas aéreas de cidades do interior de São Paulo, depois divido com vocês!

Pena que eu sempre tive azar com o tempo em SP, toda vez que decolei ou pousei o tempo tava uma MERDA!

Double post :bash:

Sao Paulo also had once trams (Bondes)!
http://www.estacoesferroviarias.com.br/bondes_sp/fotos/bondesp2.jpg
http://www.estacoesferroviarias.com.br/bondes_sp/fotos/bondesp9.jpg

See:
http://www.estacoesferroviarias.com.br/bondes_sp/bondessp.htm

^^ Too bad we dont have those anymore!

The bus companies used to say that they were too dangerous to people, so they made the city against them! :doh:

Now the city is full of buses everywere!

I really want to see the trams back in Sampa! :ohno:

There are some nice pics in a italian restaurant in Osasco's mall (the one that once exploded ;)) of how they were building the tram tracks 100 years ago.

This is one of it I collected once:
http://www.socio.ch/maro/images/Saobento1900.jpg

30 years later it looked like that - no wonder they said it's dangerous :lol: I miss them anyway... fortunatly we still have a lot of them in Zurich. But apart from Basel, Bern and Geneva it's the only Swiss cities with trams - around WWII some 30 Swiss towns and cities had them but they also said it's too dangerous with the growing traffic, too expensive and not worth to keep :( Now there is some kind of rennaissance of them here :cheers:
http://www.socio.ch/maro/images/Sebonde1937.jpg

^^ Here we have some in Rio and Santos!

And ONE in sampa, but it has a diesel engine, its for a turistical ride only!

I wish we could have them back, but im sure this will NEVER happen!

Look at this page: http://www.estacoesferroviarias.com.br/
Train tracks and stations in Brazil in the last 130 years!!!

That's the first Luz station:
http://www.estacoesferroviarias.com.br/l/fotos/luz1867.jpg

The first Luz station was really simple and small!

Check this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVKLNPGsbp4

Its a new soap opera, and its back in time, when the trains were good!

It was recorded in São Paulo, and it was to be São Paulo!

The train reminds me on the Curitiba-Paranagua one. Anyway a track EVERY train fan has to make as the the Gotthard or the Glacier Express in Switzerland :)

There were also some old train footage on Terra Nostra as far as I remember. I think they were from the archives. I hope Brazil will put the future again more on trains - afaik there are plans to revitalize train transportation also for passengers again - not only for tourists as the one to Tiradentes in Minas. Would be so great!

Oh my god, you have no idea how i love this city, such a density, its a incredible city, very modern, there is no city like Sao Paulo in latin America!

BA comes close ;)

^^ We can't compare BA with SP!

I love BA, and I love SP, but they are really diferent!

There are not a better one!

The two south american megalopolis :D

That's true but I meant because of the architecture. Both have a nice share of colonial buildings (BA more than SP) and modern skyscrapers as well are endless highrise carpets ;) The big difference is that SP doesn't lay directly on the sea...

^^ BA is much more charming!

Is more beautiful, IMO!

But lets no go into a city vs city! :lol:

Beautiful pics and a great city!

thats true... cities shouldnt be compared
only contemplated and loved

One should analyse each city's best
While BA is one of the top 3 most beautiful and charming cities in the world
Sao Paulo has a vibrant life like nowherelse on earth
with a lifestyle and velocity similar to Tokyo, the best restaurants like New York,
I mean, one cant have a notion of what Sao Paulo is without knowing it... pics wont give you that...

although it is a private city
that doenst give enough importance to public life... thats its personality
and its good that it has its own personality
making an experience like nowherelse in the globe

Thats the ugliest building in sao paulo!

Its unfair to hide it :D

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/gutooo/nojo02.jpg

You got some nice pictures!

Thanks!

wow eu amo sao paulo!

gutooo: first time I was in Sao Paulo center in 2002 I was sooooooo impressed by that building :eek: I would have LOVED Hong Kong's Walled City ;)

BTW: there is a similar one - a REAL highrise close to Julio Prestes. Do you know the name?

Is it São Vito?

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e216/matogrossodosul/MMSV.jpg

I consider both of them vertical slums!

São vito is about to be demolished! Its already empty!
Good for the city!

I never saw the first Luz Station :uh:

No no no Sao Vito I know well - it's always voted the prime eyesore of the city apart from Minhocao... No, it's when you walk from Julio Prestes towards Luz station on the right hand side. It's a high tower, half broken - a real cool slum building :)

I think it's this one on the right of the pic:

http://www.cidadedesaopaulo.com/touraereo/fotos/est_julio_prestes2.jpg
the reddish one?

yes ;)

what a huge city........

yes ;)

There are lots of really ugly buildings in the Luz district.

But now, the ex mayor, now elected governor José Serra, and the new mayor, Kassab, made some laws and are rebuilding the whole area!

Its a huge project!

Appart from that they are rebuilding all big squares, like praça da republica, praça roosvelt, praça da sé, among others!

Its going to be much better!

Lots of old buildings are beeing restored and selled to rich families, that are going back downtown! :D

This "reddish building" is among the ugliests in SP. It makes the whole Luz Area seems horrible. I hate it!

I just still couldn't figure out in which direction it is taken... must be south or south-west but I am not sure.

Which building is this near the E-tower?

It's still in construction? I've seen a lot of pics of this region and this building is always in the same status.

Its a skeleton!

They stop building it more than 10 years ago, and its still there!

Rumors say that they will star rebulding it, and it will be a hotel!

Only God knows :(

It's the Esqueleto Eletropaulo - At night it's sometimes lighted. I LOVE it, it's a monument of the city that is constantly under construction :lol:

^^ They stopped!

Too high!

The mayor said that they have to demolish the upper floors, cause there is an airplane route on this area!

Nooooooooooooooo! :cry: Faria Lima is also high an on the airplane route, I even took some nearly 911-pics there... wtf!?

Nooooooooooooooo! :cry: Faria Lima is also high an on the airplane route, I even took some nearly 911-pics there... wtf!?

Our laws are ridiculous! :ohno:

All new buildings in Faria Lima are not tall!

Ill post them here later :)

The laws are ridikulous but if they don't expand cumbica's airport, congonhas will always recive millions of passegers every year.It's incredble ,when you're around the routes of the airport, you can count in 10 minutes about 5 planes landing in congonhas...I want high buildings in Faria Lima too

(my english isn't good)

a its beautiful modern city

Wow!

This map is really cool!

São Paulo é o resultado de um grande mix cultural. Simplesmente Lindo!

Herre are some pics I took yesterday!

Hello people!

Hj dei um role grande pela cidade, e como estava transito, e um dia lindo, aproveitei pra tirar umas fotos com o meu celular!

Fotos com o celular + de dentro do carro + dirigindo = as fotos q vcs vao ver :D

Espero que não liguem tanto para a qualidade, pois foram tiradas nessas condiçõs citadas a cima.

Eu gosto muito de fotos tiradas de dentro do carro, são ângulos não muito vistos, e sentidos somente quando voce anda de carro pela cidade!

Tem umas bem legais!

Here I show you some pics of an old high-class residential neighborhood in S?o Paulo. Look, it?s not a gated community, those are public streets like any other:



Alto da Lapa, também conhecido como City Lapa, é um bairro originário de um loteamento da Cia. City. Empresa de origem inglesa, desenhou os bairro mais exclusivos de SP no estilo dos bairros jardins, casas com recuo em todos os lados, grandes jardins e calçadas verdes, além de belas ruas sinuosas.

Acho que ficou meio pesado, espero que gostem.

this area is really nice!! :D

as for massive and amount of high rises, only shanghai can compair with this city.

i didn;t know they have chinatown or japanese town in São Paulo

^^ japanese, cos they are predominat there ;)

I can´t believe it, it´s really impressive!!!

Massive, but ugly.

Massive, but ugly.

I really respect your opinion :D

But I think you are making a generalization!

The city, as all cities with its size, has lots of ugly sites, but has lots of beautiful sites too! ;)

very nice!!! In the sea of discussions about the sea of buildings the single gems of this city mostly drown :(

Thanks for sharing these pics, gutooo :applause:

Sao Paulo has got some aesthetic as well as tacky collections of 1970s Post-Modern Architecture. These jewels are completely overwhelmed by the mass of the city. If only these jewels were BIGGER! :D

I think Brazil and Brazliians has very good taste in design

nice photos

more more mroe

Liked it very much! More, please! :)

VERY NICE GUTOOOOOOOO....Ótimo para quem pensa que Sampa é somente um emaranhado de prédios feios e sujos.
