The 10 Best Shopping in Sao Paulo, State of Sao Paulo (SP)
The largest city in South America, Sao Paulo’s cuisine and art is as multinational as its diverse population of 10 million. With the restaurants of the Jardins district serving every food imaginable to diners from around the world, you wouldn’t be out of place going to Sao Paulo just for the dining. But you’d be missing out on world-class museums, diverse and vibrant neighborhood tours, and crazy-good shopping.

1. Municipal Market of Sao Paulo
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 22,931 reviews
Housed in a stunning example of eclectic industrial architecture, the Mercado Municipal de São Paulo — nicknamed the Mercadão — has thousands of food items on offer, literally from soup to nuts. Lush tropical and temperate fruits from every season, choice cuts of meats and fish, and hearty prepared foods,such as the renowned and enormous mortadella (bologna) sandwich, complete the market's catalog of wares, all for sale in a boisterous, welcoming atmosphere. The surrounding area can be a bit sketchy, but the sights and flavors more than make up for the journey downtown.

2. Instituto Tomie Ohtake
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2,581 reviews
Temporarily closed - Topped by a purple-and-burgundy-striped conversation piece of a skyscraper at the north pole of Faria Lima, the cultural center named after a renowned Japanese-Brazilian artist (whose son designed the building) features a rotating schedule of visual art exhibitions, including award-winning photography, avant-garde sculptures, and even decorative cachaça bottle labels. The institute is, quite simply, one of the city's best art venues.

We went to the Yayoi Kusama exhibition and it was excellent! Well organized, easy to follow the route, and the best part, it was free. Because of that, you might want to arrive early to avoid long lines. Recommend it!

I've been to many malls in many parts of the world, from the Houston Galleria, the stores on the Las Vegas strip to the Westfield Oculus in NYC, to The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore or to Antara in Mexico City or MultiPlaza in Panama. JK Iguatemi in Sao Paulo holds its own quite well! This is a high end mall with top of the line brands. This is no discount mall and you will not find sale or closeout signs anywhere. You can buy anything from an apartment designed by Pinninfarina, to the latest Rolex watches. The mall also has great restaurants and an open balcony where you can see the river and see the skyscrapers in the area and helicopters landing on them. The site is beautiful and if you are in need of a very expensive suit, shoes or why not a Ferrari, this is a place for you!
