Context

Our verdict

São Paulo is 12 million inhabitants (22 million with the greater metropolitan area), a vertical megalopolis, with no beach, but with the densest cultural scene in Brazil. July is my favourite month (8.7/10): 12-23°C, 8% rain, dry and cool climate (austral winter at 800m altitude).
