Pinacoteca is a museum of visual arts, with emphasis on Brazilian production since the nineteenth century. It belongs to the São Paulo State Secretariat of Culture. It was founded in 1905 by the State Government of São Paulo and it is the oldest art museum in the city. It is installed in the old building of the Arts and Crafts College, designed in the late nineteenth century by the architect Ramos de Azevedo. In the 1990's it underwent an extensive renovation with the architect Paulo Mendes da Rocha's project. Pinacoteca hosts about thirty Exhibitions and receives about 450,000 visitors yearly. The museum's main focus is to promote to general public a better experience with visual arts with its collection, building and historical relevance.

Whenever I’m at São Paulo Pinacoteca, Emanoel Araújo always comes to my mind. He was crucial to turn this museum into international standards. I love the Pedro Américo canvas, Ernst Papf children depiction, and the whole ensemble of painting illustrating Rio. The building itself is a masterpiece. Pay a visit if you like history of art.
2. National Sanctuary of Our Lady of Aparecida

This Cathedral plays an important role in the history of Brazil, because Brazil is (still) the biggest Catholic community on earth. Since three fishermen found the small statue of "Nossa Senhora da Aparecida" in 1717, the village developed into a big Center of pilgrimage. Today 8 million people visit the sanctuary every year.
The new Cathedral is the second largest Catholic Church on earth and was officially inaugurated 1980 by Pope John Paul II.
Everything is organised perfectly -
From the huge parking lots, over the information points, the queuing
in front of the statue of Our Lady up to the several other chapels, where you can either pray, give your promises or light your candle. Fortunately we had no queue, and the situation there was impressive. The light inside the Cathedral is beautiful, cause of the big colourful glass windows.
Even Non Catholics will be impressed.

The cost is 10 reais to park the car and climb (by car or walking) a mountain until the medium level trail to the waterfall. Sometimes a car gets stuck. After the adventure you almost lose the air with the magnificence of the waterfall (53 meters/173 feet).

This is the only really mandatory turistic place in santos city.
To go to a beach city and don't go to the beach is just insane, it's not the best beach in the region but for sure the best beach walk you can have around, a must see if you are around
