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.

São Paulo's very own Empire State Building — the Edifício Altino Arantes, also known by the name of its previous owner, Banespa — opened in 1947 as a symbol of the fast-growing city's economic might. The striking views from the observation deck, accessed from the 33rd floor of the 161-meter-tall building, never fail to impress visitors. Views, while free, are daytime only; the building is only open during normal business hours.
This city landmark built in 1947 offers great view on São Paulo from 26th floor. I was surprised by the quality of exhibitions, with one currently on masks, showing wonderful pieces from the whole world. In the lower floors, the exhibition about the history of this building and banking activities is also very interesting.

……… Visiting the school-yard as the name says is real-lii a privileged experience, to be standing at the same spot where the founders stood more than 465 years ago when there was probably nothing but jungle here. At that time the Jesuits built a straw structure here. Today there is the beautiful Portuguese Colonial structure that was rebuilt in the ear-lii 1950’s and by the sheer condition of the building it portrays the importance this site and institution still has on the people who frequent and still make use of it. The place and the grounds surrounding it is pristine and in mint condition and the simple yet impressive plague on the wall dedicated to the Apostle Paul by the Jesuits……On the day of our visit here it was a religious public holiday in Sao Paulo in honour of the celebration of “CORPUS CHISTI” so this venue was closed to the public as they were preparing for a Mass/Service as there was an Altar impressive-lii adorned for the occasion which was scheduled for later in the day, so we were unable to gain access to explore the inside and also see the museum of the city. On the same square just outside there is also the massive stone monument with an obelisk erected in honour of the first Jesuit-priest who administered to the people they came into contact with at that time. If you are in Sao Paulo this venue is a must visit place!......................
