Solo Trip to São Paulo

📷 Where to Go: 1️⃣ São Paulo Cathedral I skipped it since it’s mostly a quick photo spot, but you can visit if you have time. Just keep your phone secure! 2️⃣ Paulista Avenue The 1000th McDonald’s São Paulo Museum of Art (MASP) ⚠️ Go on Sundays! The entire street becomes pedestrian-only, filled with stalls, street performers, and vibrant energy. Grab a beer and enjoy the shows — each performer is worth watching! Restaurants are also available for breaks between exploring. 3️⃣ Beco do Batman (Batman Alley) Perfect for leisurely strolls and souvenir hunting. You can easily spend an afternoon here! 🛒 What to Buy: 1️⃣ Patio Paulista Mall Natura: Local skincare brand — try açaí body lotion and Ekos hand cream. Dengo Chocolate: A must-buy! 2️⃣ Shopping Center 3 L’Occitane Brazil-limited hand cream. 3️⃣ Shops Jardins Granado: Local perfume brand — the "Imperial" scent (woody notes) is amazing! ~¥300 RMB per bottle. 🍴 What to Eat: 1️⃣ Cruzeiro’s Bar (in Shopping Center 3) Try the Picanha (rump steak) — juicy and flavorful! 2️⃣ Coco Bambu (in Paulista Mall) A seafood restaurant with huge portions (best for groups). Don’t miss the Caipirinha! 3️⃣ Pão de Queijo Cheesy bread balls — a classic Brazilian snack! 😋 #São Paulo#Solo Trip #BrazilFood #ShoppingGuide##StreetArt #TravelTips#Brazil#trip diary
