Known as the “concrete jungle,” this city has more than 12 million inhabitants and is considered the main economic and cultural center of Latin America.
Rich in history and diversity, the city offers an endless number of museums, iconic parks, and a cuisine that ranks among the best in the world. However, its climate is famous for its instability, and it is common to experience all four seasons in the same day under the classic “paulistana drizzle.”
