In town for two days? Get up and at it with our list of essential eating, drinking and drifting
Y1 DA Head up for a stroll along Avenida Paulista, the most iconic of São Paulo’s avenues, with its ranks of skyscrapers bristling with antennae, plus a handful of surviving early-20thcentury mansions.
MASP & AVENIDA PAULISTA
SHUTTERSTOCK
START THE DAY paulistano-style at the counter of the nearest bakery, with coffee, fresh OJ and some pão na chapa (toasted, buttered bread). Bella Paulista (Rua Haddock Lobo 354, Consolação) is a reliably buzzy choice.
PARQUE DO IBIRAPUERA
Head over to Parque do Ibirapuera, SP’s answer to New York’s Central Park, where you can take your pick of the late architect Oscar Niemeyer’s imaginative constructions. Don’t miss the stunning Auditório Ibirapuera, with its wavy, red tongue jutting up skyward over the entrance.
BIA GOMES
Drift into the lush, verdant hideaway that is Parque Trianon (Rua Peixoto Gomide 949, Jardim Paulista), a lingering scrap of the Atlantic rainforest native to this part of Brazil.
Still on Paulista, across the road is the Museu de Arte de São Paulo – the MASP (Avenida Paulista 1578). Head in for a look at one of the best art collections in Latin America; or just marvel at the building – a concrete-and-glass box suspended on four scarlet columns. Ready for lunch? Uni does a great lunch buffet in the basement at MASP.

Take the metrô from Vila Madalena to São Bento. From there, wind your way through the Rua 25 de Março street market to the Mercadão municipal market (Rua da Cantareira 306, Sé), for a lunch of oysters, pastéis (fried pastries), or Middle Eastern fare. Top it off with tropical fruit from one of the stalls.
At the Pinacoteca do Estado (Praça da Luz, Luz) – an art institution stunningly renovated in 1997 by the architect Paulo Mendes da Rocha – take a wander through one of the exhibitions. Adjacent Parque da Luz, the city’s oldest public park and a former botanical garden, is a leafy paradise, teeming with curious details and a cast of interesting characters.

Dinner time. How about some sushi in the Japanese heartland of Liberdade (Metrô 1, Liberdade)? Or a gourmet sandwich at the newly re-opened Riviera bar (Avenida Paulista 2584, Consolação), to the strains of live jazz?
CAOS - BAIXO AUGUSTA
Still with us? There’s only one way to go from here: downhill, in more ways than one. Head down Rua Augusta in the direction of Centro, into the impossibly trashy nightspot known as Baixo Augusta, and see where the night takes you.

As the birthplace of football in Brazil, SP has a roster of teams that reflects one of the city’s defining features: its heady mix of cultures Be in no doubt that football reigns in Brazil, nor that São Paulo is the proud birthplace of the sport in the country, all thanks to one Charles Miller. The son of a Scottish father and a Brazilian mother, Miller brought two footballs, a pair of boots, a set of team kits and the all-important rule book back with him from a trip to the UK, and so the legend was born. The history books state that the first game ever to be played on Brazilian soil took place in Brás, the neighbourhood in which Miller was born, between workers from the Companhia de Gás de São Paulo (gas company) and the São Paulo Railway Company, where Miller worked. Instantly catching the players’ collective imaginations, over the next few years, the sport’s popularity spiralled among the working classes and those who lived along the floodplains of the numerous rivers and streams that cut through the city at the turn of the 20th century. It was during this period that São Paulo’s most famous clubs were established – clubs that would go on to shower the city in glory in the decades to come. Corinthians was founded in 1910 by Italian and Spanish

immigrants in Bom Retiro; Palmeiras, originally named ‘Palestra Itália’, was set up in 1914 by Italian immigrants in Barra Funda; and Portuguesa, the second-tier club which usually finds itself mired in mid-table anonymity, was founded by SP’s Portuguese community in 1920, back where it all began in Brás. Football also quickly found its way to the attention of the well-to-do upper classes, and when the exclusive Clube Paulistano was founded in 1900 in Jardim América, it formed its own team, Clube Athletico Paulistano. Years later, in 1930, dissidents from that club went on to form São Paulo, one of the biggest modernday teams in the city, and indeed the country. Fast forward nearly 80 years – with World Cup fever building, and the Brazilian league fixtures set to be interrupted during the tournament – and it’s SP’s stadiums that are hogging the headlines. Palmeiras’ Allianz Parque, formerly known as Parque Antártica and Estádio Palestra Itália, is in the final stages of a refit. It’s scheduled to open in mid-2014 with a new capacity of 45,000 and a museum dedicated to Palmeiras. The biggest opening, however, will undoubtedly belong to Corinthians and its Arena Corinthians stadium which, much to the chagrin of team officials, is already being nicknamed the ‘Itaquerão’ due to its location in the neighbourhood of Itaquera, and which is still awaiting its official name, once a moneyspinning sponsorship name deal has been done. The stadium, which will provide a permanent base for the team after decades in its temporary home at the illustrious Pacaembu, will play host to the World Cup’s opening match – a redemption of sorts for the city, which didn’t host any games during 2013’s Confederations Cup.

In a land in which Pelé and Ronaldo are kings, it’s no wonder that someone has erected a temple to the national sport. The fascinating Museu do Futebol treats football as an expression of Brazilian culture – from the evolving technical aspects of the sport to the game’s emotional power.

ARENA DE SÃO PAULO
World Cup 2014 It’s been a long journey to get this far, but São Paulo’s new stadium is set to kick off the Cup What’s in a name? Known as ‘Itaquerão’ locally after the neighbourhood of Itaquera in which it’s located, São Paulo’s ultra-modern Arena Corinthians is set to be called the ‘Arena de São Paulo’ for the duration of the World Cup, in FIFA’s
official literature. And it’s expected to change names again in the wake of the Cup, since as 2013 came to a close, Corinthians was busy negotiating a deal for the stadium naming rights. We’re betting the name ‘Itaquerão’ will stick though, locally, not least because of the confusing proliferation of choices. But whatever the moniker, the stadium’s construction looks to have provided São Paulo with a stadium worthy of Corinthians, one of the city’s three main teams, alongside São Paulo’s fine Morumbi home stadium, and
GETTING THERE The quickest and easiest way to get to the Arena Corinthians stadium is by taking the metrô’s red line 3 (‘Vermelha’) or the CPTM train line 11 (‘Coral’) to Corinthians-Itaquera station, in east São Paulo. From the station, it’s an 800m walk to the stadium. Anyone planning to go by taxi, bus or car, be warned that heavy traffic will likely make for a far lengthier journey.

FOOTBALL Palmeiras’ Allianz Parque, currently being remodelled and expected to open in mid-2014. With a striking, open-sided design, the Arena Corinthians, created by the Rio de Janeiro architect Aníbal Coutinho, incorporates cutting-edge technology, to deliver – locals will be hoping – a new landmark worthy of international football. Construction on the stadium began in October 2010, in a build that has not been without its problems, including a tragic accident that killed two construction workers, when a crane fell as the roof was being installed in November 2013. Given the honour of hosting the 2014 FIFA World Cup’s opening game, the stadium is ready to receive 65,000 fans into its air-conditioned public spaces, for each of the six matches that will played there during the tournament. Its capacity will drop afterwards, with the removal of about 20,000 temporary seats. The seating itself offers fans an enviable proximity to the pitch, with the front-row seats just 9m from the turf; and the design also goes the extra mile for the players, featuring spa-like changing facilities for the teams. The sound-and-vision technology is equally impressive. On the eastern stand, more than
200,000 individual LED lights together make up one of the biggest television screens in the world. Measuring 170m x 20m, the lights are covered by 1,400 sheets of glass that required 145,000 individually drilled holes, to prevent glare and improve the overall image on the screen. Lucky omens abound in the design and even in the location. A huge Corinthians team badge set into the western stand is covered with a curvedglass façade made to replicate the bulge of a goal’s net when the ball hits – a lucky charm to add to a string of numerological coincidences the team will be hoping bring it good fortune when it takes up residence at the stadium in 2015. The pitch stands at a lucky 777 metres above sea level – an echo of Corinthians headquarters’ address at Rua São Jorge 777, and also of one of its finest years, 1977, when Corinthians won its first title in more than 22 years, that of the Paulista state championship. As the Brazilian team gears up for the Cup, dreaming of becoming world champions for what would be the sixth time – an unprecedented feat for any country – fans may be hoping the magic extends to the national team, too. An auspicious start for Brazil at Arena Corinthians on 12 June would set the tone nicely.

SEMI-FINAL
BRAZIL IN THE WORLD CUP
RAFAEL RIBEIRO
Will the team reach the final and banish the spectre of its 1950 historic home-turf defeat? Despite its five World Cup wins – in 1958, 1962, 1970, 1994 and 2002 – Brazil’s most recent World Cup showings haven’t given its fans many reasons to be cheerful. The team arrived at the two previous World Cups as favourites to win, only to suffer quarter-final defeats to France (2006) and the Netherlands (2010). The fans’ feelings, until fairly recently, were that a sixth championship would prove elusive. However, since Brazil won the 2013 Confederations Cup, defeating 2010 World Cup champion Spain, there is renewed hope that Rio’s Maracanã stadium, where the final will be played on 13 July, might yet be the stage for the re-consecration of the national team. The iconic stadium was the scene of the nowinfamous Maracanaço – the 1950 World Cup final in which Uruguay silenced a record 174,000 fans by defeating Brazil on its home turf.

Sightseeing From architectural gems to urban art, there’s more to São Paulo than first meets the eye With the city’s apparently infinite sprawl of high-rises dominating the skyline from on high, it’s easy to lose sight – literally and figuratively – of the visual treats São Paulo has to offer. But despite the daunting size of this, Brazil’s cultural capital, a refreshing majority of SP’s highlights are easily accessible, and often even within walking distance of one another. In the city’s downtown area, for example, look beyond the decay and you’ll find everything from early20th-century survivors like the magnificent Sala São Paulo to ambitious Modernist icons like Oscar Niemeyer’s curvaceous Copan building. Beyond Centro’s architecture, eager pedestrians can also marvel at the city’s bustling and ever-changing street-art scene – now considered one of the world’s most vibrant – in other well-known focal points like Vila Madalena. Once you’re done getting your fill of the city’s outdoor offerings, take the show indoors, where you’ll find numerous galleries

and museums to explore, from the interactive, unadulterated fun of the Museu do Futebol, to the Picassos and Goyas of the world on display at MASP. And after a long day of wandering across town, reward yourself by settling down somewhere with an unobstructed view for, arguably, the best sight of them all – São Paulo’s awe-inspiring night skyline.

SIGHTSEEING
NEIGHBOURHOODS 1. CENTRO The most historic part of São Paulo is a slightly dilapidated version of its grand former self, but many of the landmark sites can also be found here, with splendid views to be had from the tops of skyscrapers like the Edifício Itália (see Sights). Centro has also become a target for urban renewal and an art hotspot, with new art spaces opening up, like the stunning Praça das Artes, Pivô, and the new, five-storey Red Bull Station. 2. LUZ, BRÁS & MOOCA The bairros (neighbourhoods) of Brás and Mooca were labour centres during São Paulo’s industrial revolution, populated by waves of Italian immigration. Luz is home to the stunning Estação da Luz – a working railway station built at the end of the 19th century, part of which now constitutes the fine Museu da Língua Portuguesa (the Museum of the Portuguese Language). But while Parque da Luz, opposite, is one of the city’s loveliest parks, Luz itself suffers from serious social problems, including pockets of crack addiction. Enjoy the scenery, but keep your wits about you. 3. BELA VISTA & LIBERDADE Directly south of Centro lies the city’s traditional Japanese neighbourhood of Liberdade, home to the world’s largest Japanese diaspora – though Chinese and Korean immigrants have also moved into the area, creating an evolving Pan-Asian population, complete with a range of cuisine to match. South-west of Liberdade, Bela Vista was once another stronghold of the city’s Italian community, as well as one of the cradles of its traditional black community, particularly in the neighbourhood of Bixiga.
6. PINHEIROS & VILA MADALENA With their eclectic collection of bars, boutiques, spas, restaurants and galleries, it doesn’t get much trendier than these adjacent areas. Dotted with welcoming bars and cosy music venues, they’re perfect for laid-back Sundays over a few beers with friends. The city’s busiest bar hotspot is to be found at the crossing of Rua Aspicuelta and Rua Mourato Coelho, in Vila Madalena. 7. ITAIM BIBI & VILA OLÍMPIA At night, these traffic-choked office- and hotelcentric neighbourhoods become interesting destinations for their abundance of dining options, also featuring some of the city’s more upmarket nightlife. Located south of Pinheiros and west of Jardins, these ’hoods are brimming with sleek new condominiums and high-class malls for the rich. Nevertheless, where big money goes (some) culture will follow, and there’s no shortage of art galleries to explore as well. 8. BROOKLIN, BUTANTÃ & MORUMBI The metropolitan area of the city’s outer edges, on either side of the polluted slick that is the Pinheiros river, has supplanted the favelas that were once its defining feature. Glass-fronted skyscrapers and financial centres, shopping malls and luxury hotels now dot the area.
ESTAÇÃO DA LUZ
5. AVENIDA PAULISTA & JARDINS Snazzy Jardim Paulista is epitomised by the chic designer fashion street, Rua Oscar Freire. A stroll through these affluent streets is as much about people-watching as it is about shopping. The long, skyscraper-lined ridge that is Avenida Paulista is also one of the city’s few clear landmarks, with its towering antennae visible for miles around.
SHUTTERSTOCK
4. CONSOLAÇÃO & HIGIENÓPOLIS Encircling the western edge of Centro are the attractive neighbourhoods of Consolação and Higienópolis. The former has become, in part, a buzzy restaurant and bar area frequented by media types, while the latter is a largely residential area notable for its architecture, which houses a sizeable part of the city’s Jewish community.

When the curtain rose on Verdi’s Rigoletto at the Theatro Municipal on 14 September 2011, it was 100 years almost to the day since the curtains had risen for the very first time. A city landmark and an essential part of São Paulo’s cultural fabric, the ‘Municipal’ opened at the turn of the 20th century, at a time in which São Paulo was enjoying an economic boom thanks to the growth of its coffee plantations. ‘The Theatro Municipal came into being to fulfill the cosmopolitan yearnings of the city’s upper classes,’ says the historian Márcia Camargos. Work began on the theatre in 1903, and took eight years to complete in the capable hands of the architect Ramos de Azevedo, whose team created a building with drama, and with dazzling stature. In 1922, it was the setting for the seminal ‘Semana de Arte Moderna’, which marked the start of the Modernist movement in Brazil and featured the work of artists such as Tarsila do Amaral, and the writer Oswald de Andrade. The cherry on top came in 2013, when the first phase of a stunning new arts complex, Praça das Artes (Avenida São João 281), opened just a hop, skip and a pirouette from

SESCS The city’s network of SESCs is the stage for affordable, world-class shows and events
NELSON KON/PRESS IMAGE
The impact on its cultural scene made by Brazil’s non-profit network of SESC centres, scattered throughout the land, is impossible to overstate. Even in São Paulo, where there is a large number and variety of events on offer, the city’s SESCs remain its most consistent providers of excellent quality, range and and value for money when it comes to theatre, dance and live music. Created in 1946 as a way for Brazilian commerce to assure the social well-being of the general workforce, SESC (Serviço Social do Comércio – the ‘commercial sector’s social services’) has become a giant, wellfunded non-profit institution, thanks to laws that regulate and encourage contributions by all commercial enterprises. Its aim is to promote culture, health and education to the Brazilian public, and it has centres in every city of a decent size. In São Paulo itself, there are 16 SESC venues, which function as major athletic, performance and exhibition centres. A constantly changing roster of world-class
music, dance, art and theatre events is on offer, and ticket prices are always reasonable (around $R5-$25), and often even free. The standout SESCs include the immense red-and-white building and four swimming pools of SESC Belenzinho (Rua Padre Adelino 1000, Belenzinho, 11 2076 9700), built three years ago. SESC Bom Retiro (Alameda Nothmann 185, Bom Retiro, 11 3332 3600) is even newer, its bright, glass-walled atrium looking out into the heart of the surrounding neighbourhood. But the undisputed jewel in the crown is SESC Pompeia (Rua Clelia 93, Pompeia, 11 3871 7700), a former factory that was transformed into a stunning cultural and community centre by the Modernist architect Lina Bo Bardi, who was also responsible for the MASP art museum. The complex, which opened in 1982, also houses the live music beer hall, the Choperia. For information on programming, and to buy tickets online, visit sescsp.org.br. Most venues are closed on Mondays (Carmo, Consolação and Odontologia open daily).

Restaurants From fine dining to cheap-and-cheerful diners, São Paulo is vying for the top spot as South America’s culinary capital As you might expect from a city the size of São Paulo, the choice of places to eat out has taken on epic proportions, from the myriad neighbourhood lanchonetes (snack bars) and bakeries to million-dollar investments in slinky new restaurants, all part of a never-ending carousel of gastronomic comings and goings. The superlatives apply equally to the variety on offer, in a culinary scene as eclectic as São Paulo’s immigration history. The city’s massive influx of Italian, Japanese, Jewish, Lebanese and Syrian immigrants from the late 19th century to the early 20th century, have all made their mark on the city’s cuisine, with Bolivians and Koreans adding to the mix in more recent years. Head to the neighbourhoods of Mooca or Bixiga for a taste of Italy, where they take their pizza seriously, eschewing cardboard boxes in favour of white tablecloths and attentive waiters serving your every slice. Japanese restaurants can be found to suit every budget in Liberdade – once a Japanese stronghold, but now home to growing ranks of Korean and Chinese eateries, too.
Doubling as the country’s business capital, São Paulo is also rich in high-class steakhouses, churrascarias, serving up prime cuts à la carte, or ‘rodízio’-style – all-you-can-eat feasts, where waiters circulate, slicing straight onto your plate from piping-hot cuts of meat. Add to that the talented chefs transforming Brazil’s bountiful natural larder into award-winning gourmet delights – among them Alex Atala, Helena Rizzo and Rodrigo Oliveira, at the helms of of D.O.M., Maní and Mocotó, respectively – and putting São Paulo on the dining map in the process.

DISH OF THE DAY Come lunchtime, São Paulo has a designated dish for each day of the week

There’s nothing like a bit of repetition to inject some predictability into life, but few places take it to the lengths it reaches in street-corner lanchonetes (snack bars), restaurants and botecos across São Paulo. At these local eateries, there’s a set meal – a ‘prato feito’, or ‘PF’ – for every day of the week, and they’re crowned, arguably, by the rich savoury goodness of the national comfort-food passion: the feijoada.
TUESDAY Dobradinha is a hearty stew of tripe with white beans, bacon, sausage, tomatoes and parsley.
WEDNESDAY/SATURDAY Feijoada – a national favourite – is a pork-and-bean stew, served with rice, kale and orange slices.
THURSDAY Rabada means oxtail, and that’s what’s traditionally served on Thursdays, often accompanied by polenta and watercress.
FRIDAY Fish is a classic Friday dish in many Catholic countries, and it’s no different here, served any which way you like.
SUNDAY Pizza is a Sunday institution for paulistanos, bringing families together in thousands of pizzerias citywide.

Eat, drink and be merry, Japanese style, at São Paulo’s izakayas A welcome antidote to those who think Japanese cuisine begins and ends with sushi, izakayas – a word which loosely translates as ‘to sit in a sake bar’ – are a Japanese take on gastropubs and have been popping up in São Paulo over the last few years. That’s not to say they’re a new phenomenon here; old-fashioned mainstays like Kabura (Rua Galvão Bueno 346, Liberdade, 11 3277 2918) have been going strong for decades in SP’s Japanese heartland, Liberdade. Newer neighbours include Izakaya Issa (Rua Barão de Iguape 89, Liberdade, 11 3208 8819) – a shoesoff spot run by an all-lady line-up, serving traditional fare along with an all-imported sake menu. At the bright and breezy Bueno (Alameda Santos 835, Jardim Paulista, 11 2386 8035, izakayabueno.com.br), chef, owner and former sumo wrestler Fernando Kuroda cooks up mouth-watering classics like okonomiyaki – a fried cabbage and pumpkin pancake (see photo). Check out the newest arrival, the low-lit, diminutive Minato Izakaya (Rua dos Pinheiros 1308, Pinheiros, 11 3814 8065), which – unlike most izakayas – also serves sushi.

In Hong Kong, you’d slurp down a bowl of noodles. In New York, it might be a falafel wrap or a slice of pizza. In London, more often than not it’s a sandwich at your desk. Lunch: each city has a favourite way of doing it. Here in São Paulo, whether your midday meal is business, pleasure or simple sustenance, don’t miss the chance to experience one of the city’s fantastic buffets. Scores of these lunch-only eateries vie for customers in the city’s business hubs, which means you can find excellent, impressively varied arrays of food. Choose between two types of buffet: all-you-can-eat preço fixo (fixed price) establishments, or pay-byweight quilo (kilo) spots, where you simply grab a plate and start loading it. A word of caution: browse what’s on offer first, and strategise for a moment, then help yourself. In Itaim, Bar des Arts (Rua Pedro Humberto 9, Itaim Bibi, 11 3074 6363, bardesarts.com.br) is a stunning setting, in an old mansion, with an ample buffet filled with Mediterranean-style dishes

BARS WITH A VIEW Get a new perspective on the city while sipping a drink at one of São Paulo’s best rooftop bars, boasting don’t-miss, sky-high vistas
PRESS IMAGE
TERRAÇO ITÁLIA
São Paulo can lay claim to many a superlative, but ‘most beautiful city’ is never going to be one of them -– not at street level, anyway. But venture to the top of one of its tall buildings and it’s almost impossible not to stop, draw breath and stare at the endless city that sprawls on and on in almost every direction. Gaze at the city in high style at Skye (Avenida Brigadeiro Luís Antônio 4,700 Jardim Paulista, 11 3055 4732, skye.com. br), on the roof of the half-moon-shaped edifice that is the Hotel Unique. Skye has become a SP high point in more ways than one, flaunting all the glamour and polish you’d expect from one of the city’s most upmarket establishments. The bar, which opens to the public from 6pm – just in time for the summer sunset around 7.30pm – stretches out onto a large wooden deck alongside the pool, and looks out over the leafy treetops of Parque do Ibirapuera. For an intense, thrilling dose of urban vertigo, the rooftop bar at Terraço Itália (Avenida Ipiranga 344, República, 11 2189 2929, terracoitalia.com.br) is hard to beat,
boasting the city’s highest view, 168m high. This bar offers nigh-on 360 degrees of glass walls, and a surrounding walkway. For a close-up eyeful of the rainbow glow of Avenida Paulista’s TV and radio masts, head to The View Bar (Alameda Santos 981, Jardim Paulista, 11 3266 3692, theviewbar.com.br), thirty floors up, at the top of the Hotel Transamérica. A newer addition to the city’s rooftop selection is the 180m2 roof terrace at the more laidback, three-storey bar Alto da Harmonia (Rua Harmonia 271, Vila Madalena, 11 2528 1241, altodaharmonia.com.br). Peer through the telescope (luneta) to spot the transmission tower of TV Bandeirantes – a sky-high beacon, lit up purple at night, near Avenida Paulista. Or pull up a stool at the external bar or the upstairs glass-walled lounge at Adega Santiago (Shopping Cidade Jardim, 4th floor, Avenida Magalhães de Castro 12000, Cidade Jardim, 11 3758 4446, adegasantiago. com.br), where the view looks east to Berrini’s gleaming towers of power, on the other side of the pungent Pinheiros river.

SHOPPING CIDADE JARDIM
26/05/14 12:43
Friendly fairs, busy street markets and mega malls fuel São Paulo’s shopping addiction The running joke here is that while cariocas storm the beaches on holidays and weekends, paulistanos follow suit at the city’s malls, filing in for a browse round the shops, dinner, or a trip to the cinema. Just don’t expect to find many bargains: high prices tempt well-to-do Brazilians overseas for their purchasing requirements. Malls aside, there’s a handful of outdoor spots to explore on foot, too. Itaim is good for on-street shopping, as is Vila Madalena, with its scattering of boho boutiques. Watch out for weekly food markets (‘feiras de rua’) citywide; and hardened shoppers won’t want to miss the chaotic Rua 25 de Março street market, downtown – an open-air Aladdin’s cave where you’ll find all manner of goods, pirated and authentic.
SHOPPING MALLS Anália Franco Anália Franco, which opened in 2012, houses department stores (C&A, Renner, Zara), electronics stores (Fast Shop), and homewares (Camicado, MMartan, Tok & Stok), plus a range of specialised shops for babies and children. There are also BareMinerals and Sergio K shops, a Studio W hair studio, and a Companhia Athletica gym. The cosy food court has an America restaurant and an Outback Steakhouse, plus a nine-screen cinema, complete with IMAX. Avenida Regente Feijó 1739, Tatuapé (11 2643 4520/shoppinganaliafranco. com.br). Open 10am-10pm Mon-Sat; 2-8pm Sun and holidays. Conjunto Nacional It’s said that every day, 30,000 people pass through this complex, which was designed by David Libeskind in 1958. Innovative in its housing of businesses, flats and shops, the complex is home to the large and welcoming bookshop founded by Kurt and Eva Herz, Livraria Cultura, and to one of São Paulo’s best cinemas, Cine Livraria Cultura. The digital clock and thermometer that crown the building are a daily reference for paulistanos. Avenida Paulista 2073, Consolação (11 3179 0000/ccn.com.br). Metrô 2, Consolação. Open 7am-10pm Mon-Fri; 10am10pm Sat, Sun & holidays.
Cidade Jardim The three restaurants that opened here in late-2012 have reaffirmed this shopping centre’s association with haute cuisine, featuring Franco-Italian cooking at Rive Gauche Cuisine, contemporary Italian at Sottovento, and Spanish-Portuguese dishes at Adega Santiago. One of the city’s premiere shrines to luxury, the swish mall features shops like Hermès, Giorgio Armani, Montblanc, Red Valentino and Carlos Miele; and don’t miss Chocolat du Jour, arguably the finest chocolate shop in town. Avenida Magalhães de Castro 12000, Morumbi (11 3552 1000/shoppingcidadejardim.com). Open 10am10pm Mon-Sat; 2-8pm Sun and holidays. Galeria do Rock A downtown haven for rockers, punks and emos, the architecturally gorgeous ‘Gallery of Rock’ is a collection of 450 shops, 190 of them dedicated to music-centric pursuits such as bootlegged band T-shirts and rare vinyl records. Other sections of the compact shopping centre, built in 1963, specialise in skateboarding equipment, screen printing supplies and tattoos. Rua 24 de Maio 62, Centro (11 99515 9233/ portalgaleriadorock.com.br). Metrô 3, República. Open 10am-6.30pm Mon-Fri; 10am-6pm Sat.

Avenida Roque Petroni Jr 1089, Brooklin (11 4003 4132/morumbishopping.com.br). Open 10am-10pm Mon-Sat; 2-8pm Sun. Hours at stores, bars and restaurants vary.

MERCADO MUNICIPAL
Feira do MASP Family silver, grandmother’s lace and antique photographs are just a few of the dusty gems to be found at this scenic market underneath the hulking body of the MASP art museum. Although the prices can be surprisingly high, only one-of-a-kind articles are purveyed here. Avenida Paulista 1578, Bela Vista. Metrô 2, Trianon-MASP. Open 10am-5pm Sun.
Feira da República Running continuously since 1956, this open-air centre has 600 stands and a wide selection of food, including Japanese yakisoba; acarajé, the deep-fried Bahian shrimp treat; and run-of-the-mill hot dogs. There is also a large open-air gallery where local artists sell paintings. Praça da República, República. Metrô 3, República. Open 9am-5pm Sat, Sun.
Feira de Artes, Cultura e Lazer da Praça Benedito Calixto This Saturday market sells bric-à-brac and antique furniture – stay on your guard though, as some of the latter are copies – as well as vinyl, clothes and jewellery. It’s busiest in the afternoons, when live music kicks in from 2.30 to 6.30pm, and a buzzing gay scene arrives to animate the square’s bars and cafés. Stalls are up early until late in the afternoon, but try to get there before 4pm. Praça Benedito Calixto, Pinheiros (pracabeneditocalixto.com.br). Open 9am-7pm Sat.
Mercado Municipal The Mercadão, as it’s called, is a laboratory of the edible, spanning the city’s most important ethnic cuisines and displaying a colourful array of native and exotic fruits and vegetables. The famous bacalhau (Portuguese-style salt cod), with its melt-in-your-mouth quality, is a Mercadão favourite. Have it in pastry form at Hocca Bar, or from myriad shops in the labyrinthine market. Parque Dom Pedro II, Rua da Cantareira 306, Sé (11 3313 1326/mercadomunicipal.com.br). Metrô 1, São Bento. Open 6am-6pm Mon-Sat; 6am-4pm Sun.

MONEY The Brazilian currency is the real (plural reais). Banks and ATMs are easy to find throughout the city, though not all will accept foreign ATM cards – travellers tend to have the most success with CitiBank, HSBC and Banco do Brasil. Banks open from 10am-4pm Mon-Fri. Some ATMs can be accessed after 4pm, though for security reasons, some will only dispense limited amounts after 10pm. LOST & STOLEN CARDS

SAFETY & SECURITY It’s customary in Brazil to carry identification, often required to access office buildings. For security reasons, it’s best not to carry an original passport around, but it’s easy enough to get a copy of a passport certified at the offices of any notary public (cartório). As in any large metropolis, crime is a serious issue in São Paulo. Be careful with personal belongings, especially at night and in the city centre. Avoid wearing valuable-looking jewellery, and take the measure of your surroundings before pulling out a camera, laptop or mobile phone. Most places are safe to walk in during the day, but at night it’s best to avoid areas where there are few people. High-risk areas for crime and pick-pocketing include Praça da Sé, Praça da República, and around Estação da Luz. Do not argue with muggers – just hand over your possessions calmly, and try not to look at them too directly. Chances are they will be carrying a weapon.
TELEPHONES DIALLING & CODES Brazil’s international country code is 55. All cities have a two-digit city code followed by an eightdigit telephone number. Mobiles in São Paulo and selected other cities now have nine digits (always commencing with a 9), except those operated by
82 Time Out São Paulo
700 ESSENTIALS_ENG_26Mai_Bia.indd 82
26/05/14 14:54
ESSENTIALS Nextel. The city code for São Paulo is 11, though you don’t need to include 11 when making a local call from within São Paulo. MOBILE PHONES European phones and US GSM phones usually work, though you may need to call the mobile operator first to remove international restrictions. Some Brazilian operators reportedly permit foreigners to register a pre-paid local SIM card using a passport number, but in practice, most insist on a valid CPF (Brazilian social security number).
TOURIST INFORMATION São Paulo’s official English-language tourism site, run by SPTuris, is cityofsaopaulo.com. There are several tourist information offices. The most centrally located ones are at Avenida São João 473 and Avenida Paulista 1853.
TRANSPORT ARRIVING & LEAVING By air Guarulhos International Airport (GRU; 11 2445 2945, aeroportoguarulhos.net), also known as Cumbica, is São Paulo’s major international
airport. GRU is located 40 kilometres (25 miles) from the city centre and is served by major domestic and international airlines. Guarucoop (11 2445-2945/gru.com.br) runs a taxi service from outside the arrival area. Rates are fixed and range from R$75 to R$130 depending on the neighbourhood you are going to. For R$36.50, there’s also an airport shuttle bus (0800 7702287, airportbusservice.com.br) with services that stop in São Paulo’s central neighbourhoods, major hotels, and the Tietê bus terminal (metrô access). The most budget-friendly (and timeconsuming) option is to take bus 257 from the airport to Tatuapé metrô (R$4.45). São Paulo’s other major airport, Congonhas (CGH; 11 5090 9000, aeroportocongonhas.net), serves domestic flights and is just 8 kilometres (5 miles) from the city centre. Your transportation options from CGH are the same as above: taxi (R$30-$40), shuttle bus (R$36.50), or public transport (R$3). Located 99 kilometres (62 miles) outside São Paulo, near Campinas, is Viracopos-Campinas airport (VCP; 19 3725 5000, viracopos. com.br). The airport is mostly used for cargo transport, but the airline Azul (4003 1118, voeazul.com.br), runs passenger flights from here to many Brazilian cities. The website toandfromtheairport.com pro-

vides detailed information about getting to and from the airports. By bus There are three main bus terminals in São Paulo, all connected by metrô. The largest bus station is Rodoviária do Tietê (Avenida Cruzeiro do Sul 1800, 11 3866 1100), which serves international destinations and most destinations to the north. This is the station you are most likely to use if you take any long-distance buses in Brazil. Some buses going to southern and southwestern destinations leave from Rodoviária da Barra Funda (Rua Auro Soares de Moura Andrade, 664, 11 3866 1100), as well as from Rodoviária do Jabaquara (Rua dos Jequitibás, 11 3866 1100). Unfortunately, there is no centrally organised website listing times and routes of domestic and international buses. A search on SOCICAM (socicam.com.br), however, will show which bus companies serve which destinations; and many private bus companies operate their own websites. These sites can be useful for finding information; but without a CPF (Brazilian social security number), you will probably be unable to make a purchase online. Instead, tickets can be bought at the ticket
window in the bus station. Tickets are likely to sell out during the World Cup, so it is a good idea to purchase in advance. PUBLIC TRANSPORT São Paulo’s public transport system is extensive. The metrô is clean and safe, though it doesn’t serve many neighbourhoods. But where the metrô doesn’t go, a bus usually does. The transport authority, SPTrans (sptrans.com.br), has a journey planner that uses Google Maps. Fares & tickets If you plan to make a few journeys on public transport, it’s well worth getting a Bilhete Único (free at metrô stations, but with a R$15 initial minimum credit). The card allows for free or low-cost transfers between buses, the metrô and CPTM trains. One bus ride is R$3, or for R$4.65 you can take one metrô/CPTM ride and up to three bus rides in a period of three hours. City buses São Paulo is served by a large network of buses regulated by SPTrans. A 24-hour hotline (dial 156) provides information on buses routes, or use

accept cards, so make sure to have cash to hand. Central Táxi 11 3035 0404 Delta Rádio Táxi 11 5072 4499
Metrô Each metrô line is identified by a colour and a number. A ride to any destination costs R$3 and tickets can be bought at booths labelled ‘Bilheteria’. With some exceptions, the metrô operates from 4.40am to midnight (0800 7707722, metro.sp.gov.br).
DRIVING Driving in São Paulo is not for the faint of heart – drivers can be assertive and traffic and parking can be a nightmare, especially during peak hours. Ethanol is just as common in Brazil as traditional fuels, so make sure you know which fuel your car runs on. (Most new cars run with both ethanol and petrol.) Car rental companies will happily hand you a set of keys as long as you have a driver’s licence, credit card, and a passport corresponding to the country in which your licence was issued.
CPTM The Companhia Paulista de Trens Metropolitanos (0800 055 0121, cptm.sp.gov.br) is essentially an extension of the metrô that serves farther-flung suburban destinations, as well as parts of the city that the metrô does not reach.

Taxis Taxis can be hailed on the street, though the safest way is to call for one, find one at a ponto de táxi (taxi rank), or download one of the handy smartphone apps such as Easy Taxi, 99Taxis or SaferTaxi. Taxis use electronic metres, and fares start at R$4.10. Each additional kilometre costs R$2.50. After 8pm and on Sundays, the price per additional kilometre will be 30 per cent higher. Most taxis don’t
CYCLING There are still relatively few ciclovias (bicycle paths) in São Paulo, but there are some located in Parque do Ibirapuera, Cidade Universitária and along the Rio Pinheiros. There are also ciclofaixas (closed-off roads) on Sundays and holidays from 7am-4pm (ciclofaixa.com.br). To rent a bike, the Bike Sampa (bikesampa.com) scheme has more than 100 pick-up points throughout the city. To use the service, you’ll need to register online first (for which foreigners will need to give their passport number), providing credit card details and a R$10 deposit. Book a bike by telephone (11 3298 8811) or via the smartphone app (bikesampa.com.br/app), selecting the bike ID number at the chosen pick-up point, operational between 6am and 10pm. Trips of up to 60 minutes are free, provided there is a 15-minute interval between uses. After the first 60 minutes, bikes cost R$5 every 60 minutes.

WALKING Though São Paulo is a car-oriented city, it is possible to explore many areas on foot. The best neighbourhoods for walking in are the historic Centro (which is less safe at night), Vila Madalena and Jardins. When crossing, watch out for speeding traffic – cars rarely slow for pedestrians. MOBILITY ISSUES São Paulo is not the most accommodating city for visitors with disabilities. Private tour agency Go in São Paulo (11 3289 3814, goinsaopaulo.com.br) provides tourist services and assistance for people with limited mobility, while the non-profit agency Instituto Mara Gabrilli (img.org.br) provides information on accessibility in public places.
