Japanese flavor

Many of the businesses cater to the Asian community in Sao Paulo. People shop here for Asian groceries, Japanese books and household goods. There is one street that has a row of futon stores. There are also gift shops offering Japanese knick-knacks like tea sets, cheap kimonos and fake samurai swords.
