A food scene shaped by more immigrant communities than almost any other city in the Americas, a gallery and street-art scene that turns entire neighbourhoods into open-air museums, and a skyline that keeps going long after you think it should have stopped.

The best time to visit São Paulo is May–Aug, when typical daytime highs reach about 27°C (80°F). Local time there is 09:36 (UTC-3).
