Conurbation between the metropolitan districts around Greater So Paulo (Campinas, Santos, Jundia, Sorocaba and So José dos Campos) produced the So Paulo Macrometropolis,[9] a megalopolis with more than 30 million residents, one of the most populous urban agglomerations.

Tupi peoples, such as the Tupiniquim, Guaianás, and Guarani, occupied the Piratininga plains surrounding the Tietê River, which is now the region of modern-day So Paulo. Additionally, several tribes inhabited the territories that currently comprise the metropolitan region. [20]
The territory was split into Caciquedoms (chiefdoms) when the Europeans first encountered it.
[21] Tibiricá was the most renowned cacique, renowned for his support of the Portuguese and other European colonists. Tietê, Ipiranga, Tamanduate, Anhangaba, Piratininga, Itaquaquecetuba, Cotia, Itapevi, Barueri, Embu-Guacu, etc. are among the many indigenous names of localities, rivers, neighborhoods, etc. that still exist today.
Colonial period
Founding of São Paulo Wedding Photography, 1909 painting by Oscar Pereira da Silva
Pátio do Colégio, the college's courtyard in the Historic Center of So Paulo. In 1554, the city was created at this place. The current structure is a late 20th-century reconstruction of the Jesuit college and church that were constructed on the site in 1653.
On January 25, 1554, the Colégio de So Paulo de Piratininga was founded in the Portuguese town of So Paulo dos Campos de Piratininga. The twelve-priest Jesuit college comprised Manuel da Nóbrega and the Spanish priest José de Anchieta. They constructed a mission atop a high hill between the rivers Anhangaba and Tamanduate. [22]
First, they had a tiny structure erected of rammed earth by Native American craftsmen in their customary fashion. Priests desired to evangelize and convert these Indians from the Plateau region of Piratininga to Christianity. Indians termed the Serra do Mar mountain range "Serra Paranapiacaba" to distinguish it from the shore.
The institution was named after a Christian saint and was founded on the feast day commemorating the conversion of Paul of Tarsus, the Apostle. This report was written by Father José de Anchieta in a letter to the Society of Jesus:
1560 marked the beginning of Courtyard of the College settlement. During the arrival of Mem de Sá, Governor-General of Brazil, to the Captaincy of So Vicente, he ordered the transfer of the Village of So Bernardo do Campo's inhabitants to the neighborhood of the college. The institution was subsequently titled "College of St. Paul Piratininga" The new position was on a steep hill near to the Várzea do Carmo, a vast wetland. It provided enhanced protection against attacks by indigenous groups. It was renamed Vila de So Paulo and placed under the command of So Vicente.
For the next two centuries, So Paulo grew as a poor, isolated village that relied heavily on the cultivation of subsistence crops by indigenous laborers. Due to the difficulty of travel, So Paulo was the sole settlement in the interior of Brazil for a considerable amount of time. Due to repeated Indian incursions near the Caminho do Piraiquê, also known as Piacaguera, Mem de Sá prevented colonists from using it.
On 22 March 1681, Lus lvares de Castro, the Second Marquis de Cascais and donee of the Captaincy of So Vicente, relocated the capital to the settlement of So Paulo, naming it the "Head of the captaincy" (see Timeline of So Paulo). The new capital was inaugurated with public festivities on April 23, 1683.

The Monument to the Bandeiras honors the bandeiras of the 17th century.
So Paulo was one of the poorest localities of the Portuguese colony in the seventeenth century. It was also the focus of colonial growth in the interior. Due to their great poverty, the Paulistas were unable to purchase African slaves as did other Portuguese colonists. In the 1690s, the discovery of gold in the province of Minas Gerais attracted attention and new inhabitants to So Paulo. The Captaincy of So Paulo and Minas de Ouro (see Captaincies of Brazil) was established on November 3, 1709, when the Portuguese crown purchased the grantees' Captaincies of So Paulo and Santo Amaro. [23]
So Paulo became a safe haven for weary travelers because to its convenient location in the nation, up the steep Serra do Mar escarpment/mountain range while traveling from Santos, and not too far from the sea. The village became a hub for the bandeirantes, who marched into uncharted territories in search of wealth, gems, valuable stones, and Indians to enslave. The bandeirantes, also known as "flag-bearers" or "flag-followers" organized expeditions into the wilderness for the primary purpose of profit and the expansion of the Portuguese crown's realm. Local markets and the provision of food and lodging for explorers contributed to the growth of the economy. In 1640, the bandeirantes were able to force the departure of the Jesuits from the city of So Paulo after gaining political authority. Due to the Jesuits' objection to the Indian domestic slave trade, there had been numerous conflicts between the two organizations.

The village of So Paulo was upgraded to city status on July 11, 1711. In the 1720s, pioneers discovered gold in the vicinity of present-day Cuiabá and Goiania. The Portuguese stretched their dominion in Brazil beyond the Line of Tordesillas to absorb the gold districts. In the late eighteenth century, as the gold ran gone, So Paulo switched to farming sugar cane. This commodity crop was cultivated across the interior of the Captaincy. The sugar was exported via the Santos Port. During this time, the first modern roadway connecting So Paulo and the coast was built and named the Calcada do Lorena. Today, the residence of the Governor of the State of So Paulo in the city of So Paulo is known as the Palácio dos Bandeirantes (Bandeirantes Palace), located in the Morumbi area.
