Upon arriving in São Paulo after departing from Montpellier-Méditerranée (with a layover in Paris or Amsterdam), the first thing you'll notice is the city's vibrancy. With its towering skyscrapers, bustling neighborhoods, and cultural diversity, São Paulo is always on the move. A prime example of this perpetual motion is Avenida Paulista, one of the city's main thoroughfares and the economic and financial heart of São Paulo. It’s also a hub for cultural events and entertainment. 

São Paulo is home to numerous museums and art galleries, including the renowned MASP (São Paulo Museum of Art), which boasts an impressive collection of European and Brazilian art. Another must-visit is Parque Ibirapuera, a vast urban park designed by the acclaimed architect Oscar Niemeyer, ideal for relaxation, sports, and enjoying outdoor art exhibitions.

São Paulo, a party destination

São Paulo is also famous for its vibrant nightlife. The paulistanos, São Paulo’s residents, love to party and enjoy the city's diverse nighttime offerings. 

Head to neighborhoods like Vila Madalena or Pinheiros, which are filled with trendy bars, live music clubs, and cultural events. After a night out, you can rest the next day with a nature escape in the city’s heart at Cantareira Park, one of the largest urban nature reserves in the world! There, you can hike, observe local wildlife, and rejuvenate amidst nature.

Discovering São Paulo

We enjoyed exploring Vila Madalena, a bohemian and artistic neighborhood known for its colorful streets, impressive graffiti, trendy bars, and art galleries. Shopping enthusiasts will love the Jardins neighborhood: São Paulo’s upscale area brimming with luxury boutiques, art galleries, and chic cafes. Stroll down Oscar Freire Street to soak in the elegant atmosphere of Jardins.

São Paulo’s eclectic cuisine

Food lovers will be thrilled in São Paulo. The city boasts an eclectic culinary scene, from Michelin-starred restaurants to street food stalls and traditional markets. Be sure to try local specialties such as feijoada (a stew made with black beans and meat), pão de queijo (cheese bread), and coxinha (chicken croquettes).

 

We hope these activity and sightseeing ideas inspire you to book your flight from Montpellier (with a layover in Paris  or Amsterdam) to Brazil. São Paulo’s diversity and vibrancy are sure to provide unforgettable moments.
