Do you know which was the first city in Brazil? If you thought of “São Vicente”, you're right. This municipality of São Paulo was first sighted and baptized by the Portuguese in the year 1502, when the expedition of the navigator Gaspar Lemos visited Brazilian lands. Of course, from there until it became the city it is today, São Vicente went through a lot.
In the year 1530, the king of Portugal, who at the time was D. João III, organized a large squadron of 5 ships and about 400 men, led by Captain Martim Afonso de Sousa. Their mission was to come to Brazil and perform a series of tasks, such as discovering gold and silver mines, expelling the French who were in Brazilian lands and recognize the coast of the country, in order to know what the Brazilian territory really was, in accordance with the Treaty of Tordesillas.
But this was not an easy expedition. They arrived in Bahia and went down the coast. According to historical documents, “Martim Afonso de Sousa faced many storms”. Starved and weathered storms. It was only after much effort that they reached São Vicente, on January 22, 1532.
