Itaquerão: Arena Corínthians!

Mahee spent her last Saturday in São Paulo visiting Itaquerão Stadium - Arena Corínthians together with her friend Neymar Pinheiro who has just returned from Pakistan. Unfortunately, we couldn't visit the stadium inside but we took great pictures anyway. 


When we get to Itaquera tube station there is a small memorial to Corínthians soccer team.


After have watched a short video they went to the stadium.




It takes a 15 minute walk from the tube station to the arena.




 Many tourists were disappointed because they coudn't take pictures inside the stadium and there was nobody there to give us information.


 But we enjoyed our trip. Back to the other side of the station there was an exhibition about a very popular TV presenter in Brasil, he is called Silvio Santos and several caricatures were on display to the public.






Mahee's journey back to Vila Matilde.

That was the end of our trip and Mahee's staying in Brazil. She is returning to Pakistan this week. If you like football we found a page you might find it interesting to take a look.
