Lovely Embu Das Artes - I would return! - This was a delightful half day tour from Sao Paulo. We were very lucky to have a knowledgeable guide in Danilo who was both interesting and friendly. The village is busy with plenty on offer especially the lovely art gallery run by Jessica - Fenix Galeria de Arte. Yanomani Store had some great finds and so did Gurani Arts. There are many places to eat and the the museum is a must.

Embu Das Artes, Sao Paulo - A Journey Into The Hear Of Brazilian Artistry - Let me whisk you away to Embu Das Artes, a town that’s no ordinary tourist attraction. Founded by the Jesuits with the help of the local native people, this place holds a fascinating historical significance. It’s like stepping into a living canvas that tells the tale of Brazil’s cultural tapestry. Embu das Artes is one of my favorite destinations in Sao Paulo for a weeked get away. The charming colonial center is full of charming galleries, resturants and stores full of unique visual and items that can't be found anywhere else in the city. The weekend market is a real treasure with artisians selling everything from cakes to handmade leather goods and local wine and food products. Its a great place to slow down and let your give all of your senses a real treat.

Embu das Artes - Not exactly what we were expecting. Items sold at the stalls and shops were a bit kitschy but still nice to have a day outside the city.
