São Paulo (Portuguese pronunciation: [sɐ̃w ˈpawlu] ( listen)) is one of the 26 states of the Federative Republic of Brazil and is named after Saint Paul of Tarsus. As the richest Brazilian state and a major industrial complex, often dubbed the "locomotive of Brazil", the state is responsible for 33.9% of the Brazilian GDP.

Parque Ibirapuera

The emerald heart of an oftentimes gray city, São Paulo's Parque do Ibirapuera offers respite from the urban madness among cool, shady trees and mentally-stimulating structures. Running trails, bike paths, and yoga and capoeira sessions let locals and visitors alike keep fit, while a clutch of museums and galleries — such as the museums of Modern and Contemporary Art, all designed by master Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer — gives the brain a good workout. The impressive Museu Afro Brasil and fiery Auditório Ibirapuera are two of the park's treasures.

Nice place to spend a full day. Walk without a north, just walk and see the different kind of people doing their performances, visit the MASP museum and turn right in the Augusta Street to feel a bohemiam spirit of São Paulo.

We went at 9am and we were the only ones there. Going early is awesome because it is beautiful and empty. The beach is really long and has a natural feel to is because there aren't any restaurants or houses on the beach, just trees and sand. Great for surfing

From the port in São Paulo, take a Taxi to the museu do Cafe. We made a deal with the taxi drive to take us return for 60 real. He waited at the museum for approximately an hour. The museum is well worth the visit and an absolute most to have a Brazilian coffee. It is one of the few places you can get a top quality coffee as their best beans are exported. Enjoy!!!

Juquehy Beach

Reviewed By winesreadwines

I spent a few days at this beach and was just taken away by the friendliness of the people there, the beauty of the place and the quaint town. It reminded me of small surfer towns on the coast in New Jersey, with summer homes a few blocks deep, neat shops and restaurants. The beach itself sported many surfers and boogie boarding was incredible. Catching a wave send you at least 50 feet in from where you started and at a good clip too. The kids loved it, so did I! There's also a banana boat that's not too expensive that takes you out to a deserted island off the coast, where you can walk around for a bit. There were quite a few people out there just hanging out. Also, when you walk to the end of the beach where the river runs into the ocean, there is a nice bridge to walk on, and in this inlet I saw several flying fish leaping out of the water in schools...it was incredible. Anyway, a great place to explore, relax and surf.
