Like many Paulistas, when I go for a walk in the park I usually head for Ibirapuera, which is the city’s largest and most popular green space. It is surrounded by the solidly middle-class districts of Jardins, Itaim, Moema and Vila Mariana.

... not even a Paulista (a native of São Paulo city) bothered to reply?
Me, a Northeasterner who has never visited São Paulo city cannot say much, but I hope some inhabitant of São Paulo city comes along and gives you all the necessary inside information and all the recommendations (security measures included) on taking a walk in (and around) the park on an enjoyable evening. Or on a bird-hailed sunny morning. I miss that.

You know, this guy is always such as racist dick! I've overlooked his political bent, characterized by that sort of semi-informed British expat, arrogance and conservatism that one might expect. The offhandedly racist, pointless (and inaccurate) description of "Bolivians" is just a bit too much. I find his writing moderately entertaining which makes it all the more annoying.

Just a note: Ibirapuera ISN´T the biggest park in Sao Paulo. The Ecologic Tietê Park, the Cantareira Park and Do Carmo Park are all bigger than it.
