The Cathedral in Sao Paulo, Brazil, is commonly known as Catedral da Sé de Sao Paulo, that is, the cathedral of the seat of the Bishop of São Paulo. The current cathedral is the third to occupy the site, with each previous church being demolished to accommodate a new and bigger cathedral. Cathedral de Se looks like a typical gothic cathedral, however the inside is impressive. The decorations are beautiful. The city’s largest cathedral has a capacity for 8000 people. In front of the cathedral is the Marco Zero or Zero Milestone of Sao Paulo, which is referred to as the center of the city. Most locals will warn you to be careful when you are at the square in front of the cathedral.
