My college roommate is from São Paulo. I visited him and his family about three years ago. While I had a ball there, São Paulo really is a city where you need to know a local to make the most out of your time and not be at the mercy of a hotel receptionist. The traffic is insane and there are some gritty areas that remind me of parts in Detroit (my hometown), but exercise common sense as you would anywhere else and you'll be fine.

[@ursolinomccoy9198]

That's interesting your comment and I agree ! Im from Sao Paulo and moved to USA since 2002. .....Really :) Do you remember where in Sao Paulo reminds you parts in Detroit ? I remember when you take the overpass towards the east side of Sao Paulo and when you are driving by Trilhos avenue really reminds me the Bronx NY with all the old big warehouses railroads , lot of older factories with the wall made of bricks and the tall brick chimney with the graffiti all over the place :)

[@nightcat5492]

that old downtown area where the cathedral is , is not a very good place to be ... its kind of like a skid row in LA ... in the nearby streets theres a little crack land ... .. so around there you will eventually see a lot of drunkards , druggies , and homeless .... so if a person doesnt know SP and visits that downtown area especifically , he might get the wrong impression of the city

Great video! I'm from São Paulo and the city can offer dozens of things to love and hate! The population of São Paulo is 12 millions (20 millions is the metropolitan area) and there are a lot of attractions to explore. Certainly São Paulo is one of the most cosmopolitan city of the world, with a insane night life and different kinds of food to try. But, in fact, the traffic is crazy and stressful and the violence is a problem in the whole country including São Paulo, although the criminality rates in São Paulo is lower than in others big cities in Brazil.

[@joaobrito4686]

Sou mineiro, de Belo Horizonte, uma ótima cidade, mas morei 17 anos em São Paulo e meu sonho é voltar para São Paulo (voltei para BH). Eu acho que São Paulo é a melhor cidade do mundo se você mora bem, perto do trabalho, com horário de trabalho flexível, próximo do metrô, etc... Para mim, São paulo é melhor de qualquer jeito! Até em área verde! Os mineiros costumam falar, "São Paulo, que horror, uma selva de pedras", mas, se for pra somar as áreas verdes, as opções de parques, talvez seja maior de que de BH (estou cansado para pesquisar). O que mais gosto em São Paulo são as opções culturais e gastronômicas, a vida agitada, a internacionalidade da cidade (gente de todo mundo, em certos locais ou meios, se você não fala inglês, está ferrado!), a liberdade sexual (em certos locais, ninguém liga se você é gay - BH é um "lixo", neste sentido!). Adoro as opções 24 horas, realmente, uma cidade que não para (tem até academia 24 horas). Morei, a maior parte dos meus 17 anos em São Paulo, em Pinheiros e na Bela Vista! Tenho saudades de sair de madrugada para comer uma pizza ou um sanduíche, no Burdog, na rua Dr. Arnaldo, por exemplo, de ir no parque do Ibirapuera e fazer trilha na Serra da Cantareira! Tenho saudades de andar, de noite, na Augusta e ver todas as tribos juntas, sem confusão (jovens de classe baixa, de classe alta, maduros, skatistas, sambistas, roqueiros, moderninhos tatuados, gringos, gay, puta e travesti!).

[@rogermotta780]

I'm from the metropolitan area of Rio, and here the crime is everywhere,São Paulo is twice as big as Rio,but even so it is much safer. Probably because here poverty is everywhere,in Rio you will see social inequality everywhere,rich or middle-class neighborhoods near favelas,in Sao paulo there is also that, but much less,most poor neighborhoods are further away . And the favelas of São Paulo are safer,an example of this are videos on the internet where a motorcycle police officer chases thieves and enters the favelas, here in Rio if a police officer enters a favela alone he is killed.

[@AnonymousLibertar1an]

Roger Motta melhor comentário, realmente amg, sou de SP e confirmo oq vc disse sobre São Paulo... Segundo o Ipea que fez o estudo sobre a violência no Brasil, SP foi considerado o estado mais seguro do Brasil e Santa Catarina o segundo colocado com taxa relativamente dentro da média mundial de homicídios por 100mil habitantes, os únicos estados que se saíram bem no país todo nesse quesito... E sobre favelas de fato em SP tem diminuído em diversas áreas, em algumas regiões periféricas e próximas de áreas nobres foi demolido várias favelas e construído conjuntos habitacionais pras pessoas mais pobres e as que ainda tem não tem tanta violencia comparado a RJ e outros lugares do nordeste e norte do Brasil, na capital as pessoas usam celular normalmente no transporte público sem medo, depende do bairro q vc tá eh tranquilo usar na rua, a polícia de SP foi considerado a mais eficiente do Brasil tbm, claro q existe políciais eficientes em todo o país mas em SP a polícia militar tem se destacado mais.

[@rogermotta780]

@@AnonymousLibertar1an Essa parada,duvido(pelo menos as chances são quase nenhuma) vc viver em um bairro como o Jardins ou qualquer outro bairro rico de SP e ter a chance de ser atingido por uma bala perdida,no Rio tu pode tá no seu apartamento de milhões e ser atingido por uma bala de fuzil,pq a bala de fuzil alcança mais de 2km,e como eu disse,no RJ as favelas estão por toda a parte perto de bairros ricos. Outra coisa,na minha visão de fora,creio meio improvável alguém ser assaltado em plena avenida paulista a mão armada,o q pode acontecer são furtos e o ladrão sair correndo. Outra questão q eu creio q ajuda SP,é o fato de o PCC comandar praticamente todo o crime organizado,no RJ tem um ''bilhão'' de facções diferentes com grande poder territorial,fora as milícias,ou seja é um odiando o outro e infelizmente a bala canta.

[@AnonymousLibertar1an]

Roger Motta vdd mano, já fui pra tudo que é bairro de SP e me sinto seguro em bairro nobre independente do horário, em bairros mais periféricos dependendo do horário tbm eh tranquilo, vc não sente insegurança pq geralmente polícia fica rondando pelo bairro (só de madrugada que não é consideravel ficar na rua em bairros periféricos onde tem favela) mas de dia é tranquilo como eu disse, e sobre a Paulista realmente não tem assalto, morte e essas coisas, é muitoo raro acontecer isso por lá, diversas vezes que virei a noite no sábado lá e nada me aconteceu, não tentarem me assaltar e nunca fui ameaçado, o máximo q se vê é gente pedindo dinheiro ou querendo vender bugigangas na rua 😂

[@AnonymousLibertar1an]

Roger Motta Mas espero que RJ melhore, q diminua a violência por ai... Parece q diminuiu um pouco com a intervenção federal nos últimos anos mas ainda assim está mto grande a violência, o governo e a prefeitura deveria demolir essas favelas nos morros e construir conjuntos habitacionais pra essas pessoas q vivem nas favelas, construir escolas militares nessas áreas mais violentas, aumentar o policiamento nas ruas, são coisas q daria p fazer e diminuir o índice de violencia na cidade, fora que fazendo isso aumentaria ainda mais o turismo no Rio que já é grande (a cidade que mais recebe turista no Brasil)...

With respect, I have been to 22 countries in the world, including Brazil and Brazil is the most dangerous place I have been. Even on my channel I have videos or Rio and I also have been in Sao Paolo and will be there in less than 3 weeks. We go there only to stay and transit usually to Colombia or Rio, another place of extreme danger. It is no disrespect to the people of Brazil, they are nice to us overall 100% but the crime and the police that let it happen is insane. My friend saw 3 robberies in Rio while the police watched and did nothing near the beach. We walked around Sao Paolo with extreme caution, but look up the 10 most dangerous cities in the world, last time I think half were in Brazil. The government needs to pay the police more, and weed out corrupt ones-you know the police even rob motorists with fake planting of drugs and such.

I am from a city called Campinas located in the countryside of São Paulo State. Close to São Paulo city about one hour by driving. I've already drove my car there and the car transit it's really crazy, but believe the Paulistanos do have more respect in the traffic than people in the countryside of São Paulo. I mean it's easier. I totally agree with many of the point of view you had about São Paulo. It's totally a multicultural city. There you can find easily Japanese, Corean, Chinese, Italian and many other people from around the world. We use to call São Paulo of "Selva de Pedra" that means something like "a Stone Jungle" cuz it's full of buldings like the many bridges, huge malls, Museums, and not so much green like in other places. São Paulo doest not have beach, but nearby like just one hour from the city, there are many beachs that Paulistanos and people from São Paulo's countryside state use to go during the holidays or weekends. I enjoyed your recomendations about São Paulo Wolters. Hope you've had a good time here in Brazil. Hugs dude.

#5 Is also very common in Europe, saw this a few times in Portugal. The difference is, in Brazil you give them money AFTER you come back to your car, it's like "oh thanks for taking care of it, here is some change". Whereas in Europe, you give them the money as soon as you're out of the car. There, it's more of a "thanks for pointing out that parking spot" meaning.

Even Mexico, which is also suffering from a soaring murder rate, had less homicides per capita with 25 per 100,000 last year.

Hi Wolters! Love ur channel! In SP visit Parque Água Branca, near Metrô Barra Funda. It's a nice park with lots of chicken, ducks and peacocks wandering free everywhere.

[@guilhermevianabarbosa803]

I lived in São Paulo for 2 years before I moved back to Distrito Federal, and one thing I found cool about it was that there is a seriously wide variety of places to go if you're just bored of being stuck at home. Unfortunately, though, I never got to visit many of those places, but at least I did visit some xD

[@GlassEyeGaming]

I’d love to visit here!

Fast tips: Go to Unique hotel rooftop, go to Ema Klabin fundation, go to Couve island and in the north: Fernando de Noronha

The state of Sao Paulo has beaches but in other cities, unlike Rio de Janeiro the capital is near the sea Sao Paulo and the opposite, the capital and almost in the center of the state.

[@musafawundu6718]

Sao Paulo has most of the topology and most of the vegetational types and climates that one will find in Brazil. Summer highs can be close to 40 Celsius, while most parts of the state have recorded temperatures below freezing in some years of winter, but above 1000 metres in the Serra Manitquerera and also along the border with Parana lows below 0 Celsius in June, July, and August are not uncommon, and above 1500 metres, they lows occassional fall below -10 Celsius.

[@luizantonio9076]

I’m brazilian and you are telling the world the real true about sao paulo, that in my point of view is way better, rich and secure than Rio. Come to the state of Santa Catarina, the capital island of Florianópolis!

Despite our political problems in Brazil, I can only admit that I love my country, we are a mix of different cultures. Each place here, has a different feature, and that is what makes Brazil unique. ❤️❤️ (I'm from SP Brazil)

Hi congratulations on your recent half a mill subscribers. Your videos inspired me to go to Rio in 2017, and I plan to go to Sao Paulo in Oct this year. I have a question: is there a train/ or shuttle service that connects those 2 cities? Thanks for your videos.

[@bruno.ferreira]

Buses (6 hour trip aprox.) and airlines (50 min) connect the cities

[@JessP1]

@@bruno.ferreira do you know the name of the city or station where the buses services are?

[@bruno.ferreira]

@@JessP1 in Sao Paulo it's "Tietê Terminal" (Terminal Rodoviário do Tietê). In Rio it's "Novo Rio" Bus Terminal.

[@bruno.ferreira]

@@JessP1 You may also departure from other terminals in São Paulo (like "Barra Funda"), but services are less frequent.

[@JessP1]

@@bruno.ferreira thank you so much. This is great help! I'm not sure what the price difference is for flying or bus transportation. But I can search in Google maps and get the website through there. Thanks a lot again.

Santos and Guarujá are part of São Paulo, so you can check beaches on that list too....

I'm from São Paulo, I'm just loved your video. And I'm going to Rome and your vlogs is helpful

[@diogogianeri8936]

I was born here and still live in the same house (with some changes, obviously). It's great to see someone talking about Sao Paulo without stereotypes (common for Sao Paulo, Brazil and all Latin America); yeah, the city is really huge; in some cases, it's easier to go to other city than other neighborhood (I'm NOT kidding). The culture here is very rich too, but, unfortunately, I totally agree with what was said about our violence; we are almost living in a civil war, at least if you look the numbers of daily deads. One really bad note for a city that I love. Thank's for the video!

[@NiviaLu]

really here in SP u need to take care with cell phone, earphone, eletronical stuff, aaaand cash money, you know, but with jewels take easy....its mor hard to pick up so...the bad guys dont care (in São Paulo)....Rio de Janeiro its mor dangerous.... but dont be afraid, it can be a beaultifull place to know, and the people in general is lovely!

I don’t think is dangerous the way some gringos see it. Have you being to the Oscar Freire, Itaim Bibi, Vila Nova Conceição and many other great areas? I walk around São Paulo in the good areas with brands purses and jewels and I never had a bad experience. It’s like any other big metropolitan city you have to be careful in which area you go. São Paulo is an amazing city!
