Into a labyrinth of colour and smell, densely packed bodies heading to the lit central courtyard, where worshippers whisper and moan in the silence far away from the traffic of the main road, waiting for the azaan of id-e-milad.

Sao Paolo Day 1
A morning walk that led form the hotel in Higienopolis to Largo Republica- the name of which remained me of my undergraduate thesis in Margao. From there to the Church Square- Ze. A city of churches on squares and three dimensional road structures- horizontal and vertical- some I suspected were built on older water systems. And on the outskirts of the old city- the high modernist towers- with concrete grills that open and stilt areas with expressive form finished concrete.
Later, after an interview with a newspaper on the pedestrian Avenue PAulistana I walked to the brilliant Lina Bo Bardi museum.
