Itaim Paulista is a district in the subprefecture of the same name in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. The name ''Itaim'' comes from Tupi and means ''Little Stone''. There is a large Pentecostalist Evangelical Protestant presence in the suburban areas along with a flourishing Catholic community. Despite significant poverty there is a surfaced road network and a good basic sanitation system. The area is served by banks, retail and wholesale shopping establishments, supermarkets, hospitals and clinics. The Shopping Itaim Paulista shopping centre and the Itaim Paulista General Hospital were opened recently. The area is linked to the rest of São Paulo by the Metropolitan Train Company (CPTM)'s Line 12. The local stations are Itaim Paulista (CPTM) and Jardim Romano (CPTM). The area is connected by road to Itaquaquecetuba by the Avenida Marechal Tito, to Ferraz de Vasconcelos by the Avenida Tibúrcio de Sousa and Itajuibe Street and to Poá by a bridge over the Três Pontes ''(Three Bridges)'' river. ==History== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Itaim Paulista (district of São Paulo)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
