Capital of the Valley

Bustling avenues, tall buildings, and thriving industry typify modern day Sao Jose dos Campos, a city of nearly 700,000 people within an hour of São Paulo. With a history of settlement dating back to 1590, when Jesuits established farms in the area, the city has built its wealth on industry, from coffee and cotton in the 9th century to aeroplane manufacturing today. Although visitors mainly come for reasons of business rather than tourism, the city's nightlife and food culture provide plenty of things to do in Sao Jose dos Campos. Outside the city the municipality boasts the São Francisco Xavier district, known for its pleasant green hills and walking tracks.
