Popular Questions and Answers

Answer: In the capital of Brazil must visit the Cathedral of Brasilia, designed by Oscar Niemeyer in the style of modernism with 16 hyperbolic columns, and the Three Powers Square – a masterpiece of urban planning by Lucio Costa. The National Congress, with its famous domes and platforms, reflects the ideas of democracy. The monumental axis included in the UNESCO list demonstrates the urban vision of the XX century.

What to see in Brasília

Brasilia is a unique planned capital, built in the middle of the XX century on the idea of modernists and the dream of a new country. The city is known for its futuristic architecture, wide avenues and unusual harmony between urbanism and nature. The atmosphere of Brasilia combines the official status of the capital and the measured, almost chamber life of areas where history intersects with modernity.

Manufactures and facilities

The man-made sights here are astoundingly diverse: the palaces of Alvorada and Planalto, the National Congress with its iconic domes, the Jabourou Palace and the Supreme Court Palace form the heart of political life. The Cathedral of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Don Bosco Chapel showcase bold modernist solutions, while the National Library and TV Tower add cultural and survey interest. No less impressive is the Mane Garrinci Stadium and the famous JK Bridge, which has become a symbol of engineering elegance.

Natural attractions and places

The natural attractions around Brasilia provide an opportunity to get away from the urban rhythm: the Agua Mineral National Park near the city itself beckons with springs and trails, the Chapada Imperial Reserve opens up the typical Serado landscape, and the manicured city parks, including Parque Materniidad, and the shore of Lake Paranoa, are ideal for walks and picnics. The surrounding area also contains places of spiritual attraction, such as the Valley of Dawn, and picturesque natural areas for outdoor activities.
