It's good for sweat or relax, or even just watch how locals exercise. If you prefer a family mood, be there on the weekends. Week days are less crowded. Every now and then its small stages host concerts, art interventions and small presentations.

Sala São Paulo is an absolutely amazing music hall, among the most important ones in all South America (with one of the best acoustics in the whole world, some may say). The architecture is breathtaking - pay attention to the mix of new and old structures - and the concerts are just great.

Vila Madalena is a huge open air shopping mall, where you can find from fashion to house utilities, cool furniture, buy organic food and even take a shopping break at the end of the day with a cold chope (the Brazilian famous draft beer) to relax. It's one of the best places in town to try it from one pub to another.

Relaxed and alternative crowd around their 35's interacts with the musicians in a very cosy and dim atmosphere. They also host exhibitions of young artists sometimes and proof that jazz music doesn't always have to be chic and sophisticated.

It's an architecture masterpiece (some people may disagree), designed by the genius Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer. Host of São Paulo Fashion Week and São Paulo's Biennale, among other important museums such as Oca, it's a delighted place if you want a bit of art and culture, practice sports or just take a break and relax on the green grass.

It’s a great moment to understand São Paulo, Brazilian cultural production made for all tastes, how people have fun and so on. It’s also one of the nights that you'll fell like you are in an European city: safe, with people walking everywhere during the whole night, 24 hour transportation. It happens in May.

It's definitely an interesting place of the city - and if you manage to see it in a busy day versus a holiday you'll be surprised with the diference. Two opposite sides of São Paulo, one of the many sites in town where you can see and feel its contradictions.
