Happy Birthday Sao Paulo!

by apaula - last update: Apr 5, 2004

So.. First of all, I'm actually from Sao Paulo city ( SP estate), not Paulo Bento as stated here. Unfortunately, the system didn't let me choose Sao Paulo....

Happy Birthday! On January 25th Sao Paulo commemorated its 450th anniversary. This mega-metropolis of over 16,000,000 boasts the fourth largest population in the world. An impressively expanding city, industrious Sao Paulo shoulders Brazil's economy. With revenue steadily on the incline, the city's wingspan stretches. No wonder 600,000 people commute into Sao Paulo daily to work and/or study. With so much history and burgeoning development, Sao Paulo's ego seemingly deserves its bragging rights this birthday.
Like any city would, Sao Paulo scheduled varied events and they were all amazing...

Tropical Sao Paulo

Sao Paulo cannot deny the habit of working and the vocation for business. With a lot of effort, the citizens were able to turn it into the most important state in Latin America, economically speaking. But that's not all there is to it. Aside from its millions of cultural attractions, it also offers the best options in tourism. Coasted by the Atlantic, its shoreline has 386 miles of spotted by beaches of all kinds and sizes. In the north shore the beaches spread around the towns such as Bertioga, S?o Sebasti?o, Caraguatatuba and Ubatuba, and also islands like Ilha Bela, paradise for surfers and sailors. In the south shore, around the towns of Iguape and Canan?ia, is where we can find some of the most important preserved natural areas of the planet, such as the Ecostation Jur?ia-Itatins and the Ilha do Cardoso, in Logamar - Complexo Estuarino Lagunar (Lake Estuary Complex) de Iguape, Canan?ia, Antonina and Paranangu?.

Cultural Sao Paulo

The city also offers an intense artistic and cultural life. You will not know Sao Paulo completely if you don't pay a visit to one of the museums ( such as MASP, picture)or the great cultural centers.
The cultural options S?o Paulo, especially are countless and attend to all tastes and budgets. You may choose from expositions outdoors, to museums of international reputation, and theatres that offer events of extremely high sophistication.
