That's my home town. Big city. Traffic. Lots of malls and some nice places to eat. Not very much of a touristic spot thought.
Despite all of its problems, this is still a beautiful city. It helps to know some of the locals, as I did when I was traveling there.
Great place to live, great place to travel to. Be sure to try the Redenção square and Lagom Brew Pub.
My hometown. Despite its many problems like chaotic traffic, lack of good public transportation and unsafe areas, is a beautiful city, I like it :)
