Tourist guide to Sao Paulo gay nightlife

Gay Sao Paulo

The area with the gay clubs is Jardins. Here you will also find the international flag ship stores, especially on the Rua Oscar Freire and the corner with Rua Augusta. This is the place to shop, to see and to been seen.

If you're done with your shopping, and is sunny wheather, have a walk through the Parque Ibirapuera. It is huge and a nice place to watch the Brasilian boys.

Gay nightlife

It is said that Sao Paulo has the best gay nightlife of Brasil. You can find many cool bars and clubs around town. However, the scene is evolving quite swiftly, and venues come and go.

Just ask a local what is happening when you're there. But remember, most people do not speak English, which means you need to 'sign language' to communicate.
