Hospitality and Exotism São Luís is known for the hospitality and the warm welcome of its inhabitants, for its feasts, folklore, cultural, artistic richnesses, churches, museums and, of course, its delicious cooking.
	The Azulejos of São Luís The São Luís historical center is formed by almost 4.000 old houses, whose exterior walls are covered by azulejos. Recently restored, these façades made all the charm of this colonial city, founded by Frenchmen commanded by La Ravardière in early XVIIth century (1612).

	São Luís, a Touch of Portuguese Style In spite of this fact, São Luís is considered the most Portuguese Style State Capital of Brazil. The typical portuguese azulejos that cover the old façades came from Portugal, of course, but also from Macau (China) and other distant places.
