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.

It is an interesting way to learn more about Brazilian culture and how we are portrayed by outsiders and Brazilians. In their collection there are many paintings made by foreigners portraying how they saw our country in our early days (when we were a colony), which contrasts to the Brazilian modern art pieces.

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.

The building's forefront plus the artpieces located outside or on it are already worth the visit. On top of them, when walking into the room, you'll see a beautiful chandelier and some cool artworks. Even though the exhibits are temporary, they are always nice and the entrance fee is low and fair, so you won't be disappointed!

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.

If spotting people of all ages and styles; bumping into different sorts of street artists (from an Elvis to Chiquinha, who claims to be a brazilian native); cycling on a sunday morning; or just sitting at a bar table on the sidewalk and seeing the crowd passing by seems like a nice thing to do, then you should go nowhere else than Paulista Avenue

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.

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 the place that represents São Paulo's city center's everyday fuzz. It's crowded and the stores only take cash so, if this doesn't scare you, it's surely worth the visit! Plus, the only tourists you might bump into are the ones who come from other parts of Brazil or those who come to the city especially to buy cheap stuff 25 de Março's style.

Even if São Paulo is cloudy the Anhangabau is nice to look at - it's a green spot amongst the gray concrete jungle. The Municipal Theater and the City Hall are also great buildings. Plus, the overpass is taken by a culture mix: street artists, businessmen and people selling (probably) stolen goods are just some examples of what you might find there
