About location

The Jaú River defines the setting of Jaú — its course through inland São Paulo has helped shape a low-rise city that opens quickly onto farmland and broad horizons. Founded in the 19th century, Jaú developed as a regional centre in the state’s coffee-growing interior and is now widely known in Brazil for women’s footwear manufacturing. Residential streets, commercial premises and workshops extend across gently undulating ground rather than forming a high-rise skyline. The city lies within the wider basin of the Tietê River, an important waterway of São Paulo state. This is a working urban centre whose identity is tied to production and its rural surroundings.

São Paulo
Region São Paulo

São Paulo is best known within Brazil for its influential coffee-growing interior, and Bauru lies in the state’s west-central zone. Set on the plateau of inland São Paulo, the city developed as a railway junction and remains a service, education and commercial centre for neighbouring municipalities. Its waterways belong to the wider Tietê River basin, an important drainage system of southeastern Brazil. Bauru also lends its name to the Bauru sandwich, a Brazilian classic traditionally made with roast beef, melted cheese, tomato and pickled cucumber. Broad avenues, farmland and seasonal tropical weather give the area a character far removed from Brazil’s Atlantic coast.

Country Brazil

Brazil has served as a Portuguese colonial link between Europe and South America since the 16th century. Its immense territory extends from the Amazon River basin in the north to the Atlantic coast, with the Pantanal wetlands and Brazilian Highlands creating very different regions inland. Rio de Janeiro sits beside Guanabara Bay beneath Sugarloaf Mountain, while Brasília is known for its planned layout and modernist buildings by Oscar Niemeyer. Portuguese is the official language, and football, regional cuisines and Carnival celebrations are central to public life across the country.
