Bookmark & shareWhat to do in São Paulo? Forget extreme sports or communing with nature, and focus on the man-made pleasures available to you: endless museums and galleries to explore, infinite shops to visit, and all sorts of nocturnal hot-spots to frequent. The historic center is also worth a leisurely stroll.
-
walking
São Paulo is a fairly pedestrian-friendly city (just watch the traffic!), and it's easy to pass an afternoon strolling around the historic center. Start at Praça da República, and take it from there!
-
dancing
Break out your dancing shoes - you're going to need them! São Paulo's proliferation of nightclubs and live music venues means you're bound to find yourself shaking your booty at some point...
-
football
While Rio's Maracanã Stadium might be bigger and more famous, the 80,000-seater Estádio Morumbi is nothing to sneeze at, either. Get along to a São Paulo Futebol Clube match and see for yourself.
