The stations are usually deep because of terrain or other features. So, for instance, the first station you mentioned (Pinheiros Station) is really deep because the train has to cross below the Pinheiros River (a river with a really soft riverbed) also, there are a lot of hills in São Paulo, so in some places the metro is deep so as not have to rise and dip with the terrain. Lastly, a lot of buildings in São Paulo have 2 or 3 underground floors for parking....

I went to college in Sao Paulo and later lived there for 9 years.... I LOOOOOOOVE Sao Paulo! The best city to live, enjoy, work, have fun!!! every day! Even if Rio is beautiful and very fun too, I would say Sao Paulo is livier or better than NY
Totally agree with your comments about Sampa Rosie. I used to live in the seaside of Santa Catarina state and with my wife, whenever we wanted proper, fancy holidays we would travel to SP. We always enjoyed super food, theatre, music halls, art galleries or just watched life go by and we still miss it even though we’re now living in London Uk. Sampa is unfortunately super underrated, but then is so the whole country. The only cool side to it is that it’s never overcrowded with tourists, that is, the addition of foreign tourists. This guys are having a blast and I’m enjoying watching it a lot. Tchau
The interesting fact is that the majority of Sao Paulo population probably don't agree with that, to us, Brazilians, it's very expensive to live in Sao Paulo, but although it's a nice city, and about Rio, it's a awsome city, but there is a lot of crimes and drug commerce in there, what makes it dangerous sometimes
Despite being the largest metrorailway system in Latin America, the size of São Paulo metrorailway system is still small compared to the city size. The good part is that São Paulo has a lot of bus corridors and small bus lines that goes everywhere. There are plans for more lines in the future: line 19 (azure blue - being planned), line 20 (pink - being planned), line 16 (violet - being planned), line 17 (gold - under construction), line 6 (orange - under construction), expansion of line 2 (green - under construction), expansion of line 13 (jade - being planned), expansion of line 5 (lilac - being planned). Fun fact: Subway lines (Metrô) use colors in their names, while railway lines (CPTM) use name of precious stones. Edit: I edited my comment above, now I wrote "metrorailway" so it counts both underground and surface system. So, Metrô (subway) has 104.4 km and CPTM (surface train) has 276 km. A total of 380.4km, according to Wikipedia and Google.
@@pedrogallovieira7474 São Paulo is the biggest city in the entire American continent, South and North America. It is currently the 4th in the world. Mexico City is close at 5th and might’ve been larger some point but not anymore.

I've visited São Paulo three times and to be honest, never ever felt in danger and that's why I love this city and hope some day I'll be able to live on it
@@lucasvasconcelos5705 Isso aconteceu porque você esteve em horário, dia, e locais differentes. Claro que lugares mais centralizados na qual há policiamento no local a segurança é maior. Agora experimente ir a locais afastados na qual não há policiais circulando a cidade e você irá sentir o que é São Paulo nua e crua do dia a dia. Eu já visitei outras metrópoles Brazileiras e para mim era seguras, mas claro sempre estive em lugares mais desenvolvidos; motivos pela qual sentia seguro, mas para quem vive lá não era.
São Paulo is not a flat City, so Metro lines needs to be designed in an average level in order to make the construction cheaper. Therefore, you need to have downstairs many levels to reach the platforms. The Yellow line was built using a heavy machine, called here in Brazil as Tatuzão, that means a big armadillo.
I'm from São Paulo and I've lived in the United States for a few years, one of the things that negatively impacted me when I arrived in this country was the precarious situation of the trains and subways and the dirt, in fact, a lot of things here are dirty, such as markets, pharmacies, malls, I think a lot is a cultural issue, Brazilians are very concerned with the look, with the aesthetics and cleanliness of the environments
@@hbbstn If they cared about hygiene and cleanliness they would pay the labour cost, they chose to not pay for it because they don't care about hygiene.

The sax sound at each Metro Station is the intro of "Trenzinho Caipira" from Bachianas Brasileiras number 2, one of the nine suites composed by Heitor Villa-Lobos.

At minute 2:00 approx. You asked about the iron cages. Those are for the trash bags that come out from the buildings. I don't know if you've seen the garbage truck. It isn't fully automated, so there are workers that go to the trash bags and pick them. They then throw the garbage bags in the dumpster truck. So almost every building and almost every house in the central area of São Paulo has its own iron cage for trash. The organic and general trash is collected on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and the reciclable ones are collected on Tuesdays. This schedule varies throughout the city and also as per availability of the recicleables pick up days. (not every neighborhood has a day for reciclables).
I'd like to add that they've this shape and are generally locked because homeless or people who collect garbage to sell to recycling centers will dig and untie everything making it hard for our garbage truck to collect it later on.
Brazil is a continental country, so we cannot say that it is unsafe because of some dangerous areas that we see in some states. Great people, food and natural beauties. The bad image of the favelas that represent 0.000001% of Brazil is unfortunately absorbed by foreigners
Overall, Brazil is not safe, especially for a Canadian couple! Many Brazilian cities feature the 50 most dangerous cities in the world. Steve is learning that some places are safer than others, though.
@@hbbstn You read when I wrote "continental country"? Please don't compare with small countries with a huge country surrounded by poor countries.

Summing it up, there are places that are safer than others in our cities. And São Paulo is way safer than Rio. Which is by the way it’s own benchmark of criminality. Nothing in Brazil gets even close
I don't know if you guys noticed but in sp we should always leave the left side of the stairs free for people who are in a hurry. You should stand on the right side.
I believe they instinctively grabbed the right side. You can see when that man passed them by; in general, that is an auto-enforcing rule, as people trying to pass teach the others to stick to the side, and vice-versa.
Those things (almost like metal cages) you pointed to in the street are for garbage pickup. Keeps it off the streets and potentially away from vermin. I wish NYC had these for garbage!! The SP metro has improved and grown by leaps and bounds since I first used it almost 30 years ago. Back then there were only 2 lines that pretty much took you no where. Completely different today. While it is smaller than the NYC metro, it’s worth remembering that the NYC metro was formed over a period of 100 years (and it shows!) SP is brand new in comparison and so it’s impressive how much has been built to date.
I'm 30 years old I grew up riding the bus in this city, because before the opening of the yellow line my neighborhood was very isolated, but after 2010 I used to use a lot more

@@wevertonmartins9947 ja vivi em diferentes países e minha régua são cidades asiáticas de nível mais alto que ny. Como urbanista posso te digo que é uma obviedade o fato de toda cidade ter defeitos.

E as unicas coisas comparaveis entre nyc e sp são populaçao, malha de metrô, PIB e a porcentagem da população que planeja sumir desses lugares.

Nothing better than going to see live how things and real life works, the city is safe, there is a lot of police everywhere, Brazilians have great respect for foreign tourists and minimal tolerance for crimes against foreigners, a foreign tourist will never be helpless without information or help in this country, thousands of foreigners live here spread all over the country normally and when they know the country, they all speak the same phrase, I thought it was terribly worse, it is much better that they say.
This is very relative I'd say. If you're talking about Jardins, Jtaim, Pinheiros... then yes, very clean and safe. Skme neighborhoods in the northern part like Santana or on the east like Mooca or Tatuapé.. then it's clean and relatively safe. But this is like 20% of the city... Where the bulk of the population live it's very poor, not clean and dangerous. Regarding being nice woth foreigners, also depend a lot... there's a lot of prejudice against some foreign groups here like chibese, haitians, africans, venezuelans...
@@victuz, que nada. Em qualquer grande cidade do mundo temos que ficar atentos. Ao contrário de São Paulo, onde o metrô parece relativamente seguro, em outros países ditos de "primeiro mundo" as estações de metrô são super visadas por batedores de carteira e é quando vários brasileiros despreocupados "dançam" porque acham que "só aqui" acontecem furtos etc. Recentemente um primo meu que esteve em Paris, mas já alertado, salvou sua carteira no metrô a tempo. Em viagens ao exterior, Europa etc. também encontrei brasileiros descuidados que foram furtados. A diferença é que nossa mídia sensacionalista faz muito estardalhaço repetitivo de coisas negativas que atingem uma minoria; por isso muitos estrangeiros acreditam que as coisas aqui são bem piores do que a realidade, pois a mídia internacional replica a nossa.

Fun facts: 12+ million is the population of São Paulo City proper but if you consider the metropolitan area then it's almost 22 M. The state of São Paulo has 46M inhabitants. Metrô's yellow line is the first operated by a private company (named Via Quatro) and also is driverless (you can actually go the front carriage and there's a glass where you see and film the tunnels, you'll be in the place where normally the driver would be. Being driverless is only possible because there are automatic security doors all along the platforms that prevent people from falling or jumping into the rails.
the stations are so deep because actually av paulista is the highest part of são paulo (sort of like a ridge), so as the yelloy line runs perpendicular to av paulista, it does not follow the terrain (no point in going all the way up and then down, traind don't do that). it also runs under the river at a certain pont (rio pinheiros), so it has to be extra deep. short answer: it is not that the station is low, it is because the street level is quite high (don't know if you got that...). and the cages are for garbage, to keep stray dogs from tearing the garbage bags. and great content, as always!!! :)
I visited some countries and I can to say, São Paulo has the cleanest subway. Here in Totonto north/south subway stations, it’s ok, but the west station are so strange. In New York I don’t get to use the subway because is dirty and have a lot of big mouse. I hate mouse. It’s important to say, don’t care if the subway station in São Paulo is in fancy area or not, every station are clean.
Sao Paulo subway is not as big as New York or Madrid or many other cities, but it certainly is one of the cleanest, and it is getting new stations every year. The Yellow line is the best one, by far. I don´t use that very much, but when I do, I love it. By the way: there are no drivers in the yellow line, it´s all computers in there - and it´s the only one like this.
@@presuffix3322 If we compare the entire region, we´d have to compare new jersey too, maybe trains near Madrid, in Paris they go for more than an hour outside the city, and then I don´t know how that is...What I do think is that São Paulo system is very good, cleaner than most, lots of beautiful stations, but could be bigger.
@@Videosuser A reminder that NYC Subways are growing up for almost 120 years already, while SP Subways has around 50 years, and the first 20 years there was only one line, so SP Subway system is growing from only 30 years yet...
I'm a São Paulo native living in Toronto, and we actually hate our subway system, because it's not big enough for the size and population of the city, it's always overcrowded (Bloor Yonge st at rush hour is nothing comparing to Sé st towards Itaquera st), and feels like it takes forever to go anywhere. But after living in Toronto for years, I came to realize the subway here is much worse lol I've never seen a subway system that completely shut down entire parts of one line for a whole weekend, every weekend, and problems in the trains are constant, here is so much more unreliable.
O certo é comparar com Nova York. Dai vemos que a linha de São Paulo é pequena, mas limpa, e de Nova York é gigante mas em muitas partes suja e antiga.
Pois é, a gente só se da conta de como o metro e trem de são paulo é bomo quando usamos trens e metrôs de outras cidades do mundo, o de Nova York mesmo da medo até durante o dia.
I like the subway system in Toronto. It is not as crowded as in São Paulo. It serves its purpose well and is well complemented by a bus network. Rush hour in SP can be overwhelming. Toronto's subway system, like many in North America, is older, so it requires regular maintenance and weekend shutdowns. Nothing particular about Toronto.

The cages you saw on the street and didn't know what they are for, they are for garbage collection. In good neighborhoods they are empty most of the day because you're not supposed to leave trash on the street all day, so you need to put it out close to the time the truck comes. Next time you come, I have some suggestions: 1) visit Foz do Iguaçu, huge falls with hidroelectrical powerplant on the border with Argentina and Paraguai. You can go inside the powerplant and it's actually pretty cool. That's around a 2h flight away from SP. 2) From São Paulo, go to Brotas. It's a small city with many cool things to do in nature, you can do ziplining, there's an ecopark, there's a place called "Singing Sand" with crystalline water.

Hello, I’m from São Paulo and I’ve started watching your videos. Congrats for the channel!! The thing you asked about in minute 2:00 is where we take the garbage from the buildings.
You have to go to Itaim Bibi/Vila Nova Conceição Area, to see some good restaurants and buildings. It's actually the fanciest region of SP and its very nice there

It's the best part of travel reactions to when you guys react to something we know of the flavour/love it.

Glad to know you both loved the city of SP, good to know we have something good to offer to visitors. You are welcome to return as many times as you like. Cheers from Brazil.
Most buildings in São Paulo have underground parking lots so the subway needs to go underneath, plus it need to still leave enough support so it won't jeopardize the building structure.
Those "cages" on the sidewalks are for putting the garbage bags on the correct day of the week. They are elevated to avoid animals like stray dogs and cat ripping the bags and to prevent it spreading around in case of rains and stuff
2:02 Those are for the buildings put they trash, the trash truck will pick from there. 3:49 This line needed to be way beyond underground because it crosses a river.
An off-the-beaten-path trip in Brazil would be Cuiabá, Mato Grosso. From there you can visit the Pantanal (swamplands) and a really cool table mountain (Chapada dos Guimarães). It would be a three-day trip: 1.City of Cuiabá, 2. Pantanal and 3. Chapada dos Guimarães. Few Brazilians have done this.
The São Paulo subway is beautiful, very well-kept, clean and safe. To tell you the truth, I love my city, and I am very happy that you are enjoying it very much. Have you already taken the Lilas (purple) line? I think it would be very interesting to visit this part of the city as well. Take Care of you guys !!
When you both leave the city, be sure to go to Luz station and get the Airport Express, it's an hourly service and operates from 4am to midnight. It's way easier to get to the airport this way.
If u like architecture u could visit Faria Lima avenue, Funchal Street, there are many beautiful buildings, many bars to go, many museums, Eataly Market, some good and fancy malls and Parque do povo, that's a good place for relaxing!
I'm so addicted to your vlogs I can't miss one and can't wait for the next one. You are able with your funny ways how to describe in details the day by day of São Paulo, in a way I never seen before. Possibly showing places and aspects locals never noticed. Good on you, imagine what lays ahead of you two in another two months in Br. Also i agree with you , Sao Paulo is very dangerous place, you might end up in love it with haha
3:45 one of the reasons why it's down below is to avoid damaging the structures above ground because our constructions are not earthquake proof since here we don't have any of those. Also here it's absolutely common nationwide to naturally have underground rivers (we even have a underground ocean, called Aquifer Guarani, the largest fresh underground water resource), and they are protected. Also due to that, these areas tend to have a very soft soil, so all our buildings (concrete and bricks are still the favourite 90% of all building materials used here, so almost no wooden houses and pre molded stuff are used usually) need to have many meters digged down as a foundation.
@1:50. those are garbage cages. Their job is similar to a solid walled garbage bin. The garbage cage main priority is keeping the garbage off the wet soggy ground during a storm and preventing the build up of damp weight and awful smells. They can be optionally locked to keep out local animal life and reduce the severity of vandalism. Visiting Banff or Jasper in Alberta Canada, similar garbage arrangements are stored in heavy walled garbage lockers to keep bears out.

Hey! For your record, the line 4 isn't the newest in São Paulo. The newest line is the monorail line, the 15 - silver in the very end of line green, in the Vila Prudente station. I recommend you guys to go there, it's pretty nice!
@@maricota3556 na verdade, a linha lilás existe desde 98. Só que o trecho com mais estações só foi terminado em 2018. Em 2016 (se não estou enganado) inauguraram o monotrilho, completamente novo. E a linha jade, que vai para o aeroporto, foi em 19 ou 18. Mas não me lembro muito bem agora as datas.
These "cages" that you see on the streets, at this size, usually in buildings with many apartments, are where garbage bags are placed to be collected by the city's garbage collection service.
Only in this line, in other lines we have a driver and the linha amarela (yellow line) probaly is the best subway line of São Paulo and the neighborhood wich they are (Pinheiros) is one of the most rich regions of São Paulo. if you go to other regions like zona leste (easten zone) the situation is very different, you will see a lot of poverty, low quality asfalt, unsafety and the public transport is terrible.

And Steven, the baskets on the street that you asked what was, they are baskets in which you put the garbage from your house until the truck passes to take it to the landfill.

The newest subway lines in SP are L5 (extension),L15 monorail. Next to the Higienópolis Mackenzie station the new L6 Higienópolis Mackenzie station is being built, which will be the deepest in SP with 69m,22 floors.
The oldest railway is 7 Rubi + 10 Tuquesa (the line was built by the English, literally the same Englishmen, the workers of the railway, were the ones who brought football to Brazil) the line used to be used for the coffee trade, connecting the countryside, where the farms were, to Santos Harbor, so it could be exported. Edit: the English also built Luz station, and that's why it's so similar to King's Cross in London
São Paulo é completamente arborizada! Em todas as partes tem árvores, E claro que tem poluição estamos falando de uma cidade com 12 milhões de habitantes.

At 2:00, those are closed trash bins. They're huge because they usually serve a whole building and they're closed because the dogs can make a mess out of them. And the yellow line is not the newest one, I think the purple one is, with other lines in the making. It's also cool to see your review on the city. I've lived in different countries (including Canada and France) and São Paulo is a city with so many different realities. I am sure the perception of the city would change if people actually got to visit and spend some time in it. The São Paulo metro system also makes me think of Seoul's and others in Asia, they're somehow similar but Seoul's has many more stations. =) Thanks for the video.
It's interesting to see that you guys explore the subway system. I find that most youtubers only show beaches or restaurants as content. JetLag Warriors on the other hand make content about subway systems. Now, that is interesting!
Unlike Seoul that is constantly under North Korea's threat, Its strange Brazils neighbors dont have the capacity to attack not even close to São Paulo with bombs, but still the metro is so deep. I would like to know why.
You will be more impressed to know that the country spent MILLIONS to build a capital from the ground in the 60s, breaking the economy of Rio de Janeiro (for the first time, oil money parted with the rest of the country was the final blow), to protect the capital against foreign invasions...
I don’t know if anyone has answered it already, but here it goes: About that things you asked at 1:55, those are garbage trays. The residents of the building in front of those trays throw their waste bags in trash cans inside the condominium, and a worker from that condominium grabs the bags and put them outside, inside those trays. Then, the waste truck comes (usually 3 times per week) and collects them. It’s very convenient not needing to go outside to throw your waste 😁👍

The stations are usually deep because of terrain or other features. So, for instance, the first station you mentioned (Pinheiros Station) is really deep because the train has to cross below the Pinheiros River (a river with a really soft riverbed) also, there are a lot of hills in São Paulo, so in some places the metro is deep so as not have to rise and dip with the terrain. Lastly, a lot of buildings in São Paulo have 2 or 3 underground floors for parking....
While watching the video, I thought that stations like the depicted one are that deep because in the future they might host more lines.
You forgot the "secret" stuff... (Like bunkers...)
yea theres a mall on paulist avenue that have 5 floors I gues just for parking
Pinheiros isn't bigger now. The new stations in Line 6 almost all would be deeper than Pinheiros.

noooo the city is dirty! The center of São Paulo smells urine. Dangerous and lots of homeless people.
I went to college in Sao Paulo and later lived there for 9 years.... I LOOOOOOOVE Sao Paulo! The best city to live, enjoy, work, have fun!!! every day! Even if Rio is beautiful and very fun too, I would say Sao Paulo is livier or better than NY
Totally agree with your comments about Sampa Rosie. I used to live in the seaside of Santa Catarina state and with my wife, whenever we wanted proper, fancy holidays we would travel to SP. We always enjoyed super food, theatre, music halls, art galleries or just watched life go by and we still miss it even though we’re now living in London Uk.
Sampa is unfortunately super underrated, but then is so the whole country. The only cool side to it is that it’s never overcrowded with tourists, that is, the addition of foreign tourists. This guys are having a blast and I’m enjoying watching it a lot. Tchau
its bigger than ny
The interesting fact is that the majority of Sao Paulo population probably don't agree with that, to us, Brazilians, it's very expensive to live in Sao Paulo, but although it's a nice city, and about Rio, it's a awsome city, but there is a lot of crimes and drug commerce in there, what makes it dangerous sometimes
@Luccas Limma And this is why we have so many ex-Paulistas who chose to emigrate to Toronto? Seriously?
@@Laughandsong, I know many canadians living in São Paulo! So what, sir?
Despite being the largest metrorailway system in Latin America, the size of São Paulo metrorailway system is still small compared to the city size. The good part is that São Paulo has a lot of bus corridors and small bus lines that goes everywhere.
There are plans for more lines in the future: line 19 (azure blue - being planned), line 20 (pink - being planned), line 16 (violet - being planned), line 17 (gold - under construction), line 6 (orange - under construction), expansion of line 2 (green - under construction), expansion of line 13 (jade - being planned), expansion of line 5 (lilac - being planned).
Fun fact: Subway lines (Metrô) use colors in their names, while railway lines (CPTM) use name of precious stones.
Edit: I edited my comment above, now I wrote "metrorailway" so it counts both underground and surface system. So, Metrô (subway) has 104.4 km and CPTM (surface train) has 276 km. A total of 380.4km, according to Wikipedia and Google.
Mexico City is bigger.

São Paulo is not a flat City, so Metro lines needs to be designed in an average level in order to make the construction cheaper. Therefore, you need to have downstairs many levels to reach the platforms.

I'm from São Paulo and I've lived in the United States for a few years, one of the things that negatively impacted me when I arrived in this country was the precarious situation of the trains and subways and the dirt, in fact, a lot of things here are dirty, such as markets, pharmacies, malls, I think a lot is a cultural issue, Brazilians are very concerned with the look, with the aesthetics and cleanliness of the environments
A lot of places in the US are dirty due to labour costs. Nothing to do with aesthetics, more to do with cheap labour cost in Brazil.

At minute 2:00 approx. You asked about the iron cages. Those are for the trash bags that come out from the buildings. I don't know if you've seen the garbage truck. It isn't fully automated, so there are workers that go to the trash bags and pick them. They then throw the garbage bags in the dumpster truck. So almost every building and almost every house in the central area of São Paulo has its own iron cage for trash. The organic and general trash is collected on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and the reciclable ones are collected on Tuesdays. This schedule varies throughout the city and also as per availability of the recicleables pick up days. (not every neighborhood has a day for reciclables).
Not through the whole city tho. I used to live in Butantã (west side) and the trucks had mechanic arms to pick the trash bins by themselves
@@mateusmagalhaes3924 legal mano
I'd like to add that they've this shape and are generally locked because homeless or people who collect garbage to sell to recycling centers will dig and untie everything making it hard for our garbage truck to collect it later on.

Those things (almost like metal cages) you pointed to in the street are for garbage pickup. Keeps it off the streets and potentially away from vermin. I wish NYC had these for garbage!!
The SP metro has improved and grown by leaps and bounds since I first used it almost 30 years ago. Back then there were only 2 lines that pretty much took you no where. Completely different today.
While it is smaller than the NYC metro, it’s worth remembering that the NYC metro was formed over a period of 100 years (and it shows!) SP is brand new in comparison and so it’s impressive how much has been built to date.
I'm 30 years old I grew up riding the bus in this city, because before the opening of the yellow line my neighborhood was very isolated, but after 2010 I used to use a lot more

São Paulo metrô is excellent ! One of the best systems in the world .
Nothing better than going to see live how things and real life works, the city is safe, there is a lot of police everywhere, Brazilians have great respect for foreign tourists and minimal tolerance for crimes against foreigners, a foreign tourist will never be helpless without information or help in this country, thousands of foreigners live here spread all over the country normally and when they know the country, they all speak the same phrase, I thought it was terribly worse, it is much better that they say.
This is very relative I'd say. If you're talking about Jardins, Jtaim, Pinheiros... then yes, very clean and safe. Skme neighborhoods in the northern part like Santana or on the east like Mooca or Tatuapé.. then it's clean and relatively safe. But this is like 20% of the city... Where the bulk of the population live it's very poor, not clean and dangerous.

Fun facts: 12+ million is the population of São Paulo City proper but if you consider the metropolitan area then it's almost 22 M. The state of São Paulo has 46M inhabitants. Metrô's yellow line is the first operated by a private company (named Via Quatro) and also is driverless (you can actually go the front carriage and there's a glass where you see and film the tunnels, you'll be in the place where normally the driver would be. Being driverless is only possible because there are automatic security doors all along the platforms that prevent people from falling or jumping into the rails.
Great comment, thanks for this. Amazing that the state of SP has nearly 10 million more people than all of Canada.
the stations are so deep because actually av paulista is the highest part of são paulo (sort of like a ridge), so as the yelloy line runs perpendicular to av paulista, it does not follow the terrain (no point in going all the way up and then down, traind don't do that). it also runs under the river at a certain pont (rio pinheiros), so it has to be extra deep. short answer: it is not that the station is low, it is because the street level is quite high (don't know if you got that...).
and the cages are for garbage, to keep stray dogs from tearing the garbage bags.
and great content, as always!!! :)
I visited some countries and I can to say, São Paulo has the cleanest subway. Here in Totonto north/south subway stations, it’s ok, but the west station are so strange.

It’s important to say, don’t care if the subway station in São Paulo is in fancy area or not, every station are clean.

Sao Paulo subway is not as big as New York or Madrid or many other cities, but it certainly is one of the cleanest, and it is getting new stations every year. The Yellow line is the best one, by far. I don´t use that very much, but when I do, I love it. By the way: there are no drivers in the yellow line, it´s all computers in there - and it´s the only one like this.

But after living in Toronto for years, I came to realize the subway here is much worse lol I've never seen a subway system that completely shut down entire parts of one line for a whole weekend, every weekend, and problems in the trains are constant, here is so much more unreliable.
The sp system is considered one of the cleanest in the world
Verdade morei em Toronto. Também são Paulo.é uma potência econômica e uma cidade 5 vezes maior que Toronto.

I like the subway system in Toronto. It is not as crowded as in São Paulo. It serves its purpose well and is well complemented by a bus network. Rush hour in SP can be overwhelming. Toronto's subway system, like many in North America, is older, so it requires regular maintenance and weekend shutdowns. Nothing particular about Toronto.

The cages you saw on the street and didn't know what they are for, they are for garbage collection. In good neighborhoods they are empty most of the day because you're not supposed to leave trash on the street all day, so you need to put it out close to the time the truck comes.
Next time you come, I have some suggestions: 1) visit Foz do Iguaçu, huge falls with hidroelectrical powerplant on the border with Argentina and Paraguai. You can go inside the powerplant and it's actually pretty cool. That's around a 2h flight away from SP.
2) From São Paulo, go to Brotas. It's a small city with many cool things to do in nature, you can do ziplining, there's an ecopark, there's a place called "Singing Sand" with crystalline water.

You can go as well to Faria Lima/JK square to see the financial center of SP, it's near and has a bicycle lane

As a Brazilian, I am really proud of my country
Most buildings in São Paulo have underground parking lots so the subway needs to go underneath, plus it need to still leave enough support so it won't jeopardize the building structure.
São Paulo is one of the most underrated cities in the world.
Those "cages" on the sidewalks are for putting the garbage bags on the correct day of the week.
They are elevated to avoid animals like stray dogs and cat ripping the bags and to prevent it spreading around in case of rains and stuff
2:02 Those are for the buildings put they trash, the trash truck will pick from there.
3:49 This line needed to be way beyond underground because it crosses a river.
An off-the-beaten-path trip in Brazil would be Cuiabá, Mato Grosso. From there you can visit the Pantanal (swamplands) and a really cool table mountain (Chapada dos Guimarães). It would be a three-day trip: 1.City of Cuiabá, 2. Pantanal and 3. Chapada dos Guimarães. Few Brazilians have done this.
The São Paulo subway is beautiful, very well-kept, clean and safe. To tell you the truth, I love my city, and I am very happy that you are enjoying it very much. Have you already taken the Lilas (purple) line? I think it would be very interesting to visit this part of the city as well. Take Care of you guys !!
Thanks for watching, Paula!❤️
When you both leave the city, be sure to go to Luz station and get the Airport Express, it's an hourly service and operates from 4am to midnight. It's way easier to get to the airport this way.
If u like architecture u could visit Faria Lima avenue, Funchal Street, there are many beautiful buildings, many bars to go, many museums, Eataly Market, some good and fancy malls and Parque do povo, that's a good place for relaxing!

3:45 one of the reasons why it's down below is to avoid damaging the structures above ground because our constructions are not earthquake proof since here we don't have any of those. Also here it's absolutely common nationwide to naturally have underground rivers (we even have a underground ocean, called Aquifer Guarani, the largest fresh underground water resource), and they are protected.
Also due to that, these areas tend to have a very soft soil, so all our buildings (concrete and bricks are still the favourite 90% of all building materials used here, so almost no wooden houses and pre molded stuff are used usually) need to have many meters digged down as a foundation.
@1:50. those are garbage cages. Their job is similar to a solid walled garbage bin. The garbage cage main priority is keeping the garbage off the wet soggy ground during a storm and preventing the build up of damp weight and awful smells. They can be optionally locked to keep out local animal life and reduce the severity of vandalism. Visiting Banff or Jasper in Alberta Canada, similar garbage arrangements are stored in heavy walled garbage lockers to keep bears out.
Every video I feel more paulistano, I was born in São Paulo and for 15 years I live in "Praia Grande" for my son's health reasons, I really like the sea but the big job is in the capital, luckily I can work online. Brazil is wonderful and Minas and the northeast are unforgettable ... be careful with the city of "Salvador" because it is not very safe but with an incredible architecture. The south is where you can rest easy. Visit the Iguaçu falls... and the Itaipu uzina are wonderful
The CPTM lines have full announcements in English. They even say Mind the Gap! Line 7 is the line I use.
Hey! For your record, the line 4 isn't the newest in São Paulo. The newest line is the monorail line, the 15 - silver in the very end of line green, in the Vila Prudente station. I recommend you guys to go there, it's pretty nice!
@@maricota3556 na verdade, a linha lilás existe desde 98. Só que o trecho com mais estações só foi terminado em 2018. Em 2016 (se não estou enganado) inauguraram o monotrilho, completamente novo. E a linha jade, que vai para o aeroporto, foi em 19 ou 18. Mas não me lembro muito bem agora as datas.
Yellow LINE in São Paulo is a driverless train, did you know?
Oh wow! Wish I knew this, so I could include it in the video. Great comment!
These "cages" that you see on the streets, at this size, usually in buildings with many apartments, are where garbage bags are placed to be collected by the city's garbage collection service.
The cool thing about this subway is that it doesn't have a train driver, it is autonomous.
Only in this line, in other lines we have a driver and the linha amarela (yellow line) probaly is the best subway line of São Paulo and the neighborhood wich they are (Pinheiros) is one of the most rich regions of São Paulo. if you go to other regions like zona leste (easten zone) the situation is very different, you will see a lot of poverty, low quality asfalt, unsafety and the public transport is terrible.
@@samuelnacimento8689as linhas do metro APENAS não precisa de condutor, o operador esta so supervisionando na linha 4 não tem porque tem as portas q n deixa as pessoas cair
Those cages are for you to leave the garbage to be collected.
I'm looking forward to seeing the videos about floripa
Love you guys!!!! Come back to Brasil. São Paulo. God bless you!! Kisses
Hey, guys, I just love your video as always. And Steven, the baskets on the street that you asked what was, they are baskets in which you put the garbage from your house until the truck passes to take it to the landfill. Garbage is placed inside so that it does not dirty the sidewalk or that the dogs do not destroy it. Keep enjoying Brazil, guys! 👋🏽🤙🏽💘
Great video
BR 👍
Linha Amarela é pika demais - Yellow line is so danm niceee!
Best city in the world 👏🏻amo São Paulo ❤️
I worked for the Company that made the São Paulo metrô, top Speed is 90km/h on some lines. And this line you guys went is not so New. We pride to keep our metrô impecable in São Paulo
U r a super cool couple. Enjoy the hell outta watching you guys. I am a Carioca living in the USA for 51 years. You guys are making me home sick and proud. Thank you. God bless you 🙏🏼👍🏼
The newest subway lines in SP are L5 (extension),L15 monorail.
Next to the Higienópolis Mackenzie station the new L6 Higienópolis Mackenzie station is being built, which will be the deepest in SP with 69m,22 floors.
The oldest railway is 7 Rubi + 10 Tuquesa (the line was built by the English, literally the same Englishmen, the workers of the railway, were the ones who brought football to Brazil) the line used to be used for the coffee trade, connecting the countryside, where the farms were, to Santos Harbor, so it could be exported.
Edit: the English also built Luz station, and that's why it's so similar to King's Cross in London
Hey please go visit the Villa-Lobos mall or the Ibirapuera Park!!! You won't regret
Quem diz q são Paulo é só poluição olha o tanto de árvores na avenida
Alguns bocoios do sul, por ciúmes pegam em pequenos defeitos, porém Curitiba + poluída que SP
São Paulo é completamente arborizada! Em todas as partes tem árvores, E claro que tem poluição estamos falando de uma cidade com 12 milhões de habitantes.
I like what you foreigners talk about São Paulo security, there is crime, there is corruption, but not in a amount that make it unsafe, and you clearly got that by now, and I hope that will attract more people to visit us, or even live here, by now, I feel you don't even need to know Portuguese to live here, we'll, only if you wanna have tons of friends, other than that, people know enough English for foreigners to get by.
don't forget the silver line it is actually the newest line on sp metro and that's what brazil is all about rich poor black Brown white,asian etc... we are all mixed and happy together regardless the problems brazil has
Cheers
Is`nt the monotrilho the Silver Line?
You meant the Silver Line, right?
We came here after seeying you guys with Rio 4 Fun 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 Amazing walks trough São Paulo City we're gonna do this on our Channel!! Keep going guys
actually the newest ones in São Paulo are the lines 15 (silver) and 5 (lilac) ^^
Really enjoyed this video on the fancy metro and a cool area!! Glad you enjoyed Sao Paulo!!!👏👏👏
Thanks, I Iove São Paulo!
Hi there, thanks for the show of what Sao Paulo Brazil metro is about. People all over the world think we are in poverty and dangerous which isn't true. I my self live here and it's a great city now every metropolitan city in the world has its bad good, even Toronto has it's bad hood like Keele and finch, I am 🇨🇦!
Gostei muito de vocês e seus vídeos. Casal super simpático, uma simplicidade que me cativou. Parabéns!!! Sucesso em suas viagens e em seus vídeos. Voltem sempre ao Brasil e em São Paulo...
At 2:00, those are closed trash bins. They're huge because they usually serve a whole building and they're closed because the dogs can make a mess out of them. And the yellow line is not the newest one, I think the purple one is, with other lines in the making. It's also cool to see your review on the city. I've lived in different countries (including Canada and France) and São Paulo is a city with so many different realities. I am sure the perception of the city would change if people actually got to visit and spend some time in it. The São Paulo metro system also makes me think of Seoul's and others in Asia, they're somehow similar but Seoul's has many more stations. =) Thanks for the video.
vão na frente na proxima vez, que não tem maquinista, da para ver os trilhos
It's interesting to see that you guys explore the subway system. I find that most youtubers only show beaches or restaurants as content. JetLag Warriors on the other hand make content about subway systems. Now, that is interesting!
Unlike Seoul that is constantly under North Korea's threat, Its strange Brazils neighbors dont have the capacity to attack not even close to São Paulo with bombs, but still the metro is so deep. I would like to know why.
@Carolina Fantaccini thank you : )
Hahahaha its no soviet russia, nothing to do with bombs. Bombs and attacks is something we never had to worry about hahaha
You will be more impressed to know that the country spent MILLIONS to build a capital from the ground in the 60s, breaking the economy of Rio de Janeiro (for the first time, oil money parted with the rest of the country was the final blow), to protect the capital against foreign invasions...

I don’t know if anyone has answered it already, but here it goes: About that things you asked at 1:55, those are garbage trays. The residents of the building in front of those trays throw their waste bags in trash cans inside the condominium, and a worker from that condominium grabs the bags and put them outside, inside those trays. Then, the waste truck comes (usually 3 times per week) and collects them. It’s very convenient not needing to go outside to throw your waste 😁👍
Bizarro ver o quão barato as nossas coisas são pros gringos e pra gente continua caro...
esse é o efeito entre moeda forte e fraca.

*Welcome to São Paulo friends!*
The flip flops cost like 5 reais to assemble, and they sell it for 50.
The interesting thing about this subway line is that the trains are operate driverless. I mean is remote controlled system. Very sophisticated.
These are South Korean trains. Sadly we don't have this kind of heavy industry here (except for aero industry)
