Lonely Planet review

North of Paulista, Rua Augusta is São Paulo's traditional red-light district, and at night the traffic slows to a crawl as johns troll the sidewalks from their cars. The area is slowly being taken over by the city's alternative crowd, however, and its simple bars and restaurants are packed after 10pm with the young, high-minded and multiply pierced.
