Brazil's cultural and economic powerhouse
São Paulo state is the economic engine of Brazil, producing roughly one-third of the country's GDP and hosting South America's most diverse and cosmopolitan metropolis. The city of São Paulo is home to the world's largest Japanese community outside Japan, the most Michelin-starred restaurants in Latin America, and a cultural scene that rivals any global city in its ambition, museums and nightlife.
