Аrea information The second largest city in the world, Sao Paulo is the capital of business tourism in the continent. The skyscrapers dominate the skyline in the largest city in Latin America, with 11 million inhabitants and a cosmopolitan and multicultural environment. HISTORY São Paulo’s history began in 1554 when the village of São Paulo de Piratininga was founded. It was the birthplace of the “bandeirante” explorers, who set out exploring the country in search of gold and found it in vast quantities in Minas Gerais state in the 18th century. The gold led the village to prosper and it then became known as a city. In the 19th century, São Paulo welcomed many immigrants, including Italians, which contributed to the industrialization process. The capital city of São Paulo has currently lost its industrial power in light of the development of other cities, but it is one of Latin Americas most important cities for commerce, services and technology. CLIMATE São Paulo has a subtropical climate with an average temperature of 18.3 ºC (65 ºF). The summers are warm and the winters are cool. CULTURE It is impossible to speak of only a single culture in São Paulo since it is a city that has been greatly influenced by Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese and Lebanese immigrants, among others. What can be said is that it is multicultural and cosmopolitan, offering areas dedicated to the visual arts, cinema, theater, music and history, as well as folklore and classical culture.
