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.

Besides the unbelievable delicious and creative dishes and deserts, they also have a huge variety of "cachaça", the Brazilian famous beverage made of sugar cane (you may also know it from the "caipirinha" drinks) and a great selection of special beer. It's a very special place to try local food and have a whole experience for hours and hours.

From tech cosmetics to high couture, JK Shopping Mall shows that the Brazilian market is equal to the biggest fashion places such as Paris, New York, Milan or Tokyo. That all being said, it’s also an interesting site to see and to be seen, as well as to understand a little bit about how the local high society lives and behaves.

The mixture of architecture styles is breathtaking. From Mosteiro São Bento (where you can catch the gregorian chanting very early in the morning) to the cathedral Sé, passing through dozens of cultural centres, squares and local restaurants, it is a walk one should do to really understand the city.

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.

If you are a fan of sky bars, the view is actually gorgeous. Not too high though, but still amazing. Perfect for Summer or warm nights, bringing the feeling of being outdoors to its most. Enjoy a cocktail, some food and good talks watching life passing down there.

Besides always having good Brazilian food and cold beer, they also serve the famous “pastel” - and it’s a must try! Don’t bother ordering, once they have a new fresh batch coming from the kitchen the friendly waiters will walk around the tables offering them. An experience from the beginning to the end.

When it comes to food, some Brazilian hits can be found there - with a gourmet touch. You will find many dishes made out of "tapioca", probably the most Brazilian ingredient of all, such as "coxinha” and the “tapioca com baba de moça e pitanga negra congelada” desert. I won’t translate it, please go there and taste them on your on :)

The restaurant is very traditional: the waiters have been working there for ages and the customer range includes businessmen and students that eat there almost everyday. As a tourist you're also NOT allowed to miss the city's best beiruth (warm sandwich on pita bread), a tasty russian strogonoff and an undescribable dessert called capricho

It's a pleasant experience all together and the feeling is contagious: it's certainly going to cheer you up. A great place to meet great people and see a bit of the rock-underground-hipster scene all together. And if you are a musician, there's a piano available for you to play and entertain the other clients while waiting for your meal or drink.
