Sao Paulo Brazil – Vacation Travel Guide
Hey what’s up everybody frank valkyria welcome to my channel today we’re doing another video on sao paulo for those of you that were not so happy about the video of yesterday uh truth to be told the video yesterday on sao paulo was more like a documentary also on other aspects
Of the city not only the the landscape and the beauty so to speak so it went also a little bit into the origin of certain problems and of course that creates a little bit of discussion especially
Uh when you know when politics is involved so anyway today you send me is actually a bunch of you sent me this video from expedia i hope it doesn’t get blocked we’re just doing a review reaction you can go subscribe to the channel of expedia do their uh travel guide videos super nice
Super awesome let’s go together check this out let’s see sao paulo through other lenses literally sao paulo and southeast brazil is the most populous city in the southern hemisphere and one of the biggest on the planet i got that this once modest missionary outpost has grown out to become
The country’s economical and cultural powerhouse welcome to the fascinating city of sao paulo oh man look at this i look at those pictures so nice and colorful and sunny days i’m like okay fine fondly known as santa these are the locals who call themselves paulistanos
And this is what paulistanos i like that senpai paulistanos look at those nice shots really nice of course they focus more on the beauty of b-rolls but yeah that’s also nice way to see things out there some monuments strong coffee named cafezino
Which they call fuchsia and of course what is that fuchii bowl what is that fuchibo cafezinho i like that cafe for me i have to do something like that i have to make a shirt for me uh and the fuji ball
Like sounds awesome it’s like sounds like what you call your their ones you know your girlfriend or you know you know your boyfriend depending on whatever like fuchsia bon fuji fuji can i have a little coffee okay i’ll do it myself i apologize like that start that’s awkward carnival
Sao paulo may not have rio’s famous beaches but it makes up for it in culture in this energetic and creative city you can enjoy the cool escape of nearly a hundred museums and taste flavors from all over the world in some 20 000 cafes and restaurants
Because sao paulo is so incomprehensibly big it helps to start at the very beginning of its history oh nice flowers the botanical gardens in parque du estado near the airport preserved some of the atlantic rainforest that covered much of the brazilian coast nice that i
Like the landscape was transformed when the portuguese arrived on a mission to convert the native amerindians to the catholic faith stand on the very spot where [ __ ] missionaries a city was founded by portuguese jesuits in 1554 at the patio do collegio in the old city center
The location of their main church the prasa da say now houses the neo-gothic metropolitan cathedral with its renaissance dome which was modeled on that of the cathedral of florence in italy very nice gothic church in the 17th century sao paulo grew exponentially when a gold rush attracted miners to the region
Next came african slaves who were imported to work in the sugar cane and coffee plantations the 19th century brought more europeans and the japanese followed in the 20th century the resulting melting pot of cultures is the pulsing engine that now drives brazil’s economy
The city’s oldest district centro has been home to latin america’s largest stock exchange since 1890 while just across the street is the richly decorated lobby of the former state bank’s headquarters building three miles nice building sometimes a little heavy those buildings but i
Also like those buildings from the 50s and 40s they have a very peculiar also arch nouveau touch to it which was present throughout europe was starting from france still liberty art duval uh in english uh what is it like oh goddammit now the word doesn’t come to mind article
Are they called so big cd man absolutely huge cd through the lens of uh of course a travel company it’s super nice bright colorful sunny so you get the really sense of like uh you know i’m gonna buy a ticket right now and go there so that’s why i said it’s also interesting
To see you know a little bit different takes on a place like everywhere else of course like everywhere else but this is super nice to the south avenida paulista was built on the wealth of the first coffee barons as the country’s financial artery and one of the city’s main thoroughfares
The boulevard pulses with the energy of about one and a half million pedestrians per day wow apart from investing i like that like a rooftop garden that’s awesome in its financial economy sao paulo also has a policy of
Boosting its creative economy making the city one of brazil’s most exciting cultural hubs i like the avenida paulista is home to the gravity-defying sao paulo museum of art inside view paintings by acclaimed european masters such as van gogh rafael and picasso as well as brazil’s own leading artists very cool
This remarkable museum belongs to the people and it was the wish of the architect that her modernist design would return the same amount of public space that it borrowed leaving the square underneath open for public enjoyment i i don’t know like how you feel about
This thing i understand it’s like you know with the structure like this that basically props it up from the ground basically it’s leaning on those four huge columns which is pretty amazing actually the these all like it’s free throughout the middle here or there is also columns because that’s
Pretty remarkable okay if this goes also the spine goes all the way from top so that that’s also the part that it’s basically like holding the the floor i suppose um look wise i don’t know i don’t doesn’t look particularly beautiful but like being just a a rectangle
Uh you know like this three-dimensional of course you use the most space and of course underneath you can use the space to go but then again if there was two floors you would have had more uh museum i’m just saying maybe an inside garden doesn’t look very appealing to walk underneath
In between the traffic there but finance and creativity go hand in hand at the banco do brazil a historic financial institution that hosts one of the city’s most prominent cultural centers in a nice that sees more than a million cars crisscrossing hundreds of miles of interconnected highways each and every day
Really like a big american city like with the highways i’ve said that yesterday too that’s a like super crowded man is a breath of fresh air to the new center tour the nearby century old municipal theatre a beauzarts building dedicated
To ballet opera and other stage shows very lovely inspired by the famous opera house palais garnier in paris of course paris was inspired by rome and of course this new classical style but very nice actually very lovely monuments and that’s actually great that their news you know
Find more cultural attractions to the north in the jardin de luz district the historic giulio prestas train station has been transformed into an esteemed and elegant cultural center while touring the grand halls of this monumental building don’t miss the sala sao paulo a massive
Wood paneled concert hall with an adjustable ceiling wow the resulting acoustics are said to rival those of the famous concert halls of vienna and berlin oh that would be nice nearby is the oldest art museum in sao paulo it’ll be really nice to see a concert in there
And acoustic a pina colada take your time here because in this beautifully renovated school of arts and crafts you can admire nearly 9 000 pieces including many priceless brazilian collections there is no better place to experience brazil’s culinary culture than the nearby markets of fruit
And veggies look at how beautiful this looks i love this i’ll be every day here buying my fruits and veggies every day i mean when i see this video i’m like okay i’m going uh the video of yesterday because also deals with issues and stuff and wasn’t really focusing also
On the nice b-roll shots of the city wasn’t super enticing i have to say so like but this maybe it’s leaning on the other side of the spectrum is trying to focus too much on the beauty and the
Color and the saturation of the images but still like when i see this i’m like wow i like this city i think i could function in there home-grown fruits cheeses meats and other local specialties i could definitely continue to make videos and being a youtuber and everything from sao paulo
Brazil that’s super awesome man find a table on a mezzanine level to look down on the hustle and bustle and admire the richly decorated windows of this impressive market hall wow beautiful beautiful market hall an eye-catching building of a completely different kind is the ibirapuera
Auditorium i don’t like it designed by brazil’s prolific architect oscar niemeyer it’s part of ibirapura park in the south of the city sorry i don’t like it while in the park visit the museum of modern art and the afro-brazil museum or simply join the locals in the city’s favorite playground
Sao paulo wouldn’t be a brazilian city if it didn’t have an arena devoted to the nation’s biggest sports heroes in the pacambu stadium soccer legends such as delay ronaldo romario and ronaldinho are on show in the highly interactive exhibits of its football museum
Well i assume also a short drive to the west assume also other legends from other football teams have played there right i’m sure from like i don’t know both inside football i don’t follow football but you know between national and international teams uh fighting like you know playing against each other
The stadium is madalena shop for unique souvenirs in one of the colorful stores or have lunch with the locals the neighborhood is as famous for its little shops and art galleries as for its marvelous street art some of these artists have since made a name for themselves on a world stage
Having risen above its humble beginnings as a missionary outpost in an uncharted land sampa is not only brazil’s economic powerhouse but also the guardian of its priceless intangible assets it’s a city of culture creativity hospitality and man looks like it’s always summer there
Sao paulo today rides a wave of positive i mean if i see this i’m literally like okay from now on three months i hear sao paulo like i love the vibe uh actually uh i think it’s the season or the other side right because sao paulo should be below the equator
So probably the seasons are reversed which makes it even more awesome if you like want to spend the sort of spring summer there in the winter here makes total sense energy into the future and is truly a destination that is much greater than the sum of its parts nice
