I found some on google!

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

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.

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.

No, off course not, men can enter as well, but they have a section where only women can enter, cause they can be topless

They have lots of things for men, including cars and airplanes!

I heard its 60 reais the full time.....ill check that!

What a good thread!! thanks!!!!!

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:
